Sans Other Obre 3 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Jazz Gothic' by Canada Type, 'Barion' by Drizy Font, 'Jetlab' by Swell Type, and 'Pricedown' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A chunky, geometric display sans built from heavy rectangular strokes and tight interior counters. Forms are largely orthogonal with frequent chamfered corners and small notches, creating a cut-metal, stenciled impression. Apertures and counters are narrow and often squared-off, with a generally compact rhythm and strong vertical emphasis. Curves are minimized in favor of faceted joins, and many glyphs use cut-ins and stepped terminals that give the texture a segmented, modular feel.
Best suited to large-scale display work such as posters, punchy headlines, event graphics, logos, and packaging where the heavy, angular construction can carry visual impact. It can also work for signage or UI/game titling when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the tight counters and cut-in details.
The overall tone is forceful and mechanical, reading as utilitarian and engineered rather than friendly or literary. Its sharp cuts and dense silhouettes suggest industrial signage, arcade/console aesthetics, and high-impact branding where a tough, no-nonsense voice is desired.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display face that replaces smooth curves with faceted, machined geometry. Its repeated chamfers and notch motifs create a recognizable texture meant to feel industrial and tech-forward while remaining legible in bold, short bursts of text.
The narrow internal spaces and frequent notch details create a busy texture at smaller sizes, while larger settings emphasize the distinctive faceting and stencil-like cuts. Numerals and caps match the same hard-edged construction, keeping the system visually consistent across the set.
