Sans Other Wiru 4 is a very bold, normal width, very high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Copperplate New' by Caron twice, 'Mister London' and 'Point Panther' by Sarid Ezra, 'Luckiest Softie Pro' by Stiggy & Sands, and 'Remissis' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with puffy silhouettes and softly squared corners. Strokes are thick and simplified, with an intentionally uneven, hand-drawn feel: curves and terminals show slight wobble and irregularity rather than geometric precision. Counters are compact and sometimes pinched, giving letters a “filled-in” look, while joins and shoulders stay broad and blunt. Widths vary noticeably by glyph, producing a bouncy rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase, and numerals follow the same chunky, simplified construction.
Well-suited for short, attention-grabbing copy such as posters, headlines, product packaging, and playful branding. It also works for children’s materials, stickers, labels, and casual social graphics where an energetic, friendly voice is desirable. For longer passages, it will generally perform better at generous sizes with ample spacing.
The overall tone is cheerful and informal, with a cartoon sign-painting energy that feels approachable and a little mischievous. Its exaggerated mass and softened shapes read as kid-friendly and upbeat, prioritizing personality over strict typographic neutrality.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, characterful sans that feels hand-made and humorous, combining chunky legibility with an intentionally imperfect outline for warmth and charm.
The face is at its best when allowed to breathe: the dense counters and bold shapes can close up visually at small sizes, while larger settings emphasize its lively, hand-rendered texture. The sample text shows a strong, poster-like color on the page with distinctive, irregular silhouettes that help words feel animated.
