Sans Other Tene 1 is a regular weight, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Hando' by Eko Bimantara, 'Afical' by Formatype Foundry, 'Neufile Grotesk' by Halbfett, 'Helvetica Now' by Monotype, and 'NeoGram' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A constructed sans with geometric proportions and deliberately segmented strokes. Many glyphs feature consistent horizontal breaks that read like stencil bridges, cutting through bowls and counters while keeping stroke weight even. Curves are clean and circular, terminals are mostly square, and joins feel engineered rather than calligraphic. The overall rhythm is uniform and grid-minded, with a slightly mechanical spacing feel that emphasizes the internal cutouts as a repeating motif across letters and numerals.
Best suited to display use where the segmented construction can read clearly: posters, headlines, branding accents, logotypes, and tech-themed graphics. It also works well for signage-style compositions and short interface headings where a distinctive, engineered voice is desired.
The repeated interruptions give the face a coded, sci‑fi tone—more like signage or interface lettering than everyday text. It feels technical and contemporary, with an experimental edge that suggests machinery, systems, and modern fabrication.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a plain sans framework through a systematic stencil-like interruption, creating a recognizable pattern while keeping the underlying skeleton straightforward and geometric. The goal seems to be a functional, modern base made more distinctive through a repeatable construction rule.
The most distinctive feature is the consistent midline segmentation appearing in many characters (including round forms and several numerals), which adds visual texture but also reduces continuity in word shapes at smaller sizes. In larger settings, the breaks become a strong graphic signature and help the type stand apart from conventional grotesks.
