Hollow Other Onba 1 is a very bold, normal width, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Myriad', 'Myriad Bengali', and 'Myriad Devanagari' by Adobe; 'MVB Solitaire Pro' by MVB; and 'Modet' by Plau (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and chunky, even strokes, built for impact at display sizes. Each glyph is filled with small circular cutouts distributed through the strokes, creating a perforated, marquee-like texture rather than a clean hollow inline. Counters are generous and shapes are simple and sturdy, while the dot pattern adds strong internal rhythm and a slightly mottled color on the page. Spacing appears open and the overall silhouette stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short display copy where the perforated pattern can be appreciated—posters, event promotions, entertainment branding, packaging callouts, and logo marks. It can work as an accent face alongside a simpler companion for body text.
The perforated interior evokes stage signage and classic cinema lettering, giving the font a showy, celebratory tone. Its dark mass combined with twinkling cutouts feels upbeat and attention-grabbing, with a friendly, slightly nostalgic personality.
The design appears intended to merge a robust, friendly sans foundation with a decorative perforation motif, delivering a bold display voice that reads quickly while adding a distinctive textured sparkle reminiscent of marquee or punch-out signage.
The dot-perforation is dense enough that small sizes may lose detail and read as texture; at larger sizes it becomes a defining decorative feature. Round letters like O/C/G and figures like 8/9 showcase the cutout pattern clearly, while diagonal strokes (V/W/X/Y) keep a solid, poster-like presence.
