Sans Other Olvi 7 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height, monospaced font visually similar to 'Nue Archimoto' by Owl king project and 'Monbloc' by Rui Nogueira (names referenced only for comparison).

A rigid, modular sans built from square, pixel-like blocks with sharp 90° corners and a consistent, even stroke. Counters are small and rectangular, and many joins resolve as stepped corners rather than smooth diagonals, giving the forms a grid-constructed feel. Proportions are compact with sturdy verticals and clear horizontal bars; curves are largely implied through angular segments, as seen in rounded letters and numerals. Spacing and rhythm feel mechanical and regular, producing strong texture in lines of text.
Best suited to display roles where a pixel/grid aesthetic is desirable, such as game UI, arcade-inspired graphics, tech or hardware-themed branding, and bold headers on posters. It also works well for short labels, interface elements, and numeric readouts where its geometric consistency reinforces a digital tone.
The font conveys a distinctly digital, retro-computing tone—evoking arcade screens, early bitmap interfaces, and hardware labeling. Its crisp, chunky geometry reads as utilitarian and technical, with a playful videogame edge that can also feel slightly severe or industrial in dense settings.
The design appears intended to emulate a bitmap or grid-based construction while remaining clean and consistent in running text. Its emphasis on square counters, stepped corners, and uniform stroke weight suggests a deliberate nod to early digital typography and screen-rendered lettering.
Several glyphs use deliberate notch cuts and stepped diagonals to suggest curvature, and the overall design leans on negative-space rectangles to differentiate similar shapes. At larger sizes the block construction becomes a prominent stylistic feature; at smaller sizes, the tight apertures and squared counters can make similar characters feel closer in silhouette.
