Sans Other Ofbu 2 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Proto Sans' by ABSTRKT, 'Beachwood' by Swell Type, and 'FTY Galactic VanGuardian' by The Fontry (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-constructed sans with squared proportions and sharply chamfered corners. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and many joins resolve as clipped angles rather than smooth curves, producing a faceted, pixel-adjacent rhythm. Counters are predominantly rectangular (notably in O, P, Q, a, b, d), and terminals are flat and abrupt, giving the forms a compact, engineered feel. Lowercase uses a tall, sturdy structure with simple single-storey shapes and tight, boxy apertures; numerals follow the same modular logic with strong right angles and clear, sign-like silhouettes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, titles, and branding where its blocky geometry can be read quickly. It also fits on-screen uses like game UI, splash screens, and tech-themed interface graphics, as well as packaging or labeling that benefits from an industrial, modular look.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, evoking digital interfaces, arcade-era graphics, and utilitarian industrial labeling. Its angular cuts add an energetic, slightly aggressive edge that reads as tech-forward and game-like rather than neutral.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, modular sans voice that references digital and industrial signage, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a consistent rectangular system over conventional text neutrality. The chamfered corners and squared counters appear intended to add character while keeping forms stable and easily repeatable across glyphs.
The design leans on consistent rectangular geometry across cases, creating strong texture in lines of text and a distinctive grid-based personality. The ampersand and punctuation shown match the same squared, modular construction, helping longer passages retain a cohesive, display-oriented voice.
