Sans Other Obro 10 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Manufaktur' by Great Scott, 'Hubba' by Green Type, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, and 'Goodland' and 'Jetlab' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-constructed sans with squared proportions and crisp, angular terminals. The forms are built from straight strokes and hard corners, with occasional chamfered cuts and wedge-like notches that create a subtly stencil-like, machined feel. Counters are small and often rectangular, and many joins resolve into sharp interior angles, producing a compact, high-impact texture. Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, modular construction, with simplified bowls and stepped curves that read as rectilinear geometry rather than true round shapes.
Best suited to display work where impact and attitude are priorities—posters, bold headlines, game or tech branding, UI titles, and short signage. It performs well in all-caps settings and large sizes where the internal cut details and stepped geometry remain legible and contribute to the design.
The overall tone feels industrial and engineered, with a retro-digital edge reminiscent of arcade, sci‑fi, and hazard-label aesthetics. Its dense, squared silhouettes and cut-in details give it an assertive, almost militaristic voice that reads loud and controlled rather than friendly.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum visual weight with a modular, machine-cut aesthetic, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a cohesive geometric system. The notches and chamfers function as stylistic signatures that push the face toward a techno/industrial display role rather than neutral text reading.
The design relies on strong negative-space carving (tight counters, notches, and cut corners) to differentiate letters, which boosts character but can compress interior clarity at smaller sizes. Numerals and capitals are especially punchy, emphasizing straight-sided shapes and minimal curvature for a rigid, constructed rhythm.
