Sans Other Ibro 9 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'European Sans Pro' by Bülent Yüksel, 'Hando' by Eko Bimantara, 'Claspo ND' by Nicolas Deslé, and 'Neue Rational Standard' by René Bieder (names referenced only for comparison).

A geometric sans with heavy, even strokes and a modular construction. Many glyphs feature deliberate breaks, notches, and “sliced” crossbars that read like stencil bridges or interrupted strokes, creating a segmented rhythm across the alphabet. Curves are broad and clean (notably in C/O/G), while terminals tend to be squared and abrupt; diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y/Z) are sharp and assertive. Lowercase forms are simplified and sturdy, with single-storey a and g, and the numerals follow the same cut-and-join logic for a cohesive, system-like texture.
Best suited to headlines, wordmarks, posters, and branding where its segmented construction can read as a defining visual cue. It can work well for tech, gaming, industrial themes, and packaging or labels that benefit from a stencil-like, engineered look; for longer passages, larger sizes and generous spacing help maintain legibility.
The repeated cutlines and bridged strokes give the typeface a distinctly technical, sci‑fi tone—part industrial labeling, part digital interface. It feels engineered and coded, with a graphic, attention-grabbing presence that leans more display than neutral text.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary geometric sans made distinctive through systematic cutouts and bridged joins, evoking stenciling and electronic display logic. The goal is strong recognizability and a mechanical, futuristic voice rather than understated neutrality.
The interruption motif is applied consistently across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing strong visual identity but also introducing intentional “gaps” that can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. Round letters with midline cuts (such as o/e/c) become signature shapes, and the overall color is dense and high-impact in blocks of text.
