Sans Other Rebez 1 is a very bold, very narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Kufica' by Artegra, 'Bs Kombat' by Feliciano, 'Angulosa M.8' by Ingo, and 'Goodland' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A dense, condensed display sans built from straight, monoline strokes and sharply cut corners. Forms are largely rectangular and chamfered, with squared counters and minimal curvature, giving letters a chiseled, modular feel. Terminals are blunt and often angled, and diagonals (as in A, V, W, Y, Z) are steep and crisp. The rhythm is tight and vertical, with compact apertures and blocky punctuation-like details in places, producing a firm, engineered texture in text.
This style is best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging panels, and signage where its compact width and hard-edged construction can stand out. It also works well for game UI titles, industrial-themed graphics, and bold typographic treatments where a mechanical, constructed voice is desired.
The overall tone is industrial and assertive, with a retro-mechanical flavor reminiscent of stenciled signage, arcade-era graphics, or utilitarian labeling. Its hard edges and compressed proportions create a sense of urgency and strength, making it feel bold, technical, and slightly militaristic without decorative flourishes.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and a distinctly engineered personality through compressed proportions, squared geometry, and angular cuts. It prioritizes a strong silhouette and consistent modular construction, aiming for a utilitarian display look that remains legible while feeling deliberately stylized.
Capitals and lowercase share a strongly unified, constructed logic, with many glyphs echoing the same rectangular joints and squared bowls. Numerals follow the same rigid geometry, reading clearly at larger sizes and contributing to an overall grid-like, architectural consistency.
