Sans Other Obgi 7 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Ramsey' by Associated Typographics, 'Liquorstore Bold & Bolder' by Chank, 'Plasma' by Corradine Fonts, and 'Angulosa M.8' by Ingo (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, squared sans with strongly rectilinear construction and mostly closed, boxy counters. Strokes are uniform and flat-ended, with frequent right-angle cuts and occasional diagonal notches that create a subtly chiseled, stencil-like feel. Curves are minimized in favor of geometric corners, giving letters like O/Q and numerals a rigid, machined silhouette. Spacing and widths vary by glyph, but the overall rhythm stays compact and dense, emphasizing solid black shape over internal detail.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, title cards, game UI labels, and logo or wordmark work where its dense black shapes can carry the design. It can also work for packaging or signage that benefits from an engineered, retro-technical voice; for longer text, generous leading and spacing would help maintain clarity.
The font conveys a tough, mechanical tone with a distinctly retro-digital flavor. Its chunky, angular silhouettes feel at home in arcade, sci‑fi, and industrial contexts, reading as confident and attention-grabbing rather than refined or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through compact, rectilinear forms and a modular, almost cut-out construction. It prioritizes bold silhouette and a mechanical character, aiming for a distinctive display voice that feels industrial and game-inspired.
Uppercase forms are especially monolithic, while lowercase mirrors the same boxy logic with simplified bowls and tight apertures. Numerals follow the same squared geometry, maintaining a consistent, modular look across alphanumerics.
