Sans Other Ipmu 2 is a bold, wide, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Actay' by Arodora Type, 'Faktum' by René Bieder, and 'TT Commons™️ Pro' and 'TT Hoves Pro' by TypeType (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with monoline strokes and broad proportions, built from crisp straight segments and large circular arcs. Many glyphs incorporate deliberate breaks and inset cuts—especially around bowls and terminals—creating a segmented, stencil-like construction while keeping counters open and shapes clean. Corners tend to be square and mechanical, with consistent stroke weight and a stable baseline presence; diagonals in letters like V, W, X, and Z are sharply chamfered and feel engineered rather than calligraphic.
Best suited to display roles where its cut-out construction can be appreciated: posters, titles, brand marks, product packaging, and attention-grabbing headings. It can also work for signage or UI moments that want a technical, industrial flavor, especially at larger sizes where the segmented details stay clear.
The overall tone is industrial and futuristic with a retro-modern edge, reminiscent of technical labeling and constructed display lettering. The repeated cut-ins add a sense of motion and machinery, giving the face a bold, confident voice that reads as designed and systematic rather than neutral.
This design appears intended to reinterpret a geometric sans through a modular, cut-and-splice system—keeping familiar letter skeletons while adding engineered breaks for identity. The goal seems to be strong impact and recognizability in short phrases and branding, with a consistent mechanical motif across the alphabet and figures.
The segmented cuts are a defining motif and appear across both uppercase and lowercase, creating a distinctive rhythm in text where interruptions line up visually across words. Round letters (O, Q, G) emphasize the contrast between smooth outer curves and internal breaks, and the numerals follow the same modular logic for a cohesive display set.
