Sans Other Pole 2 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, 'Goodland' by Swell Type, and 'Morozko' by Umka Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly compressed, forward-slanted display sans with heavy, uniform-looking strokes and a sharply faceted silhouette. Curves are largely flattened into angled corners, giving bowls and shoulders a polygonal, cut-from-metal feel. Counters are small and often rectangular, and terminals tend to end in abrupt, squared-off cuts, producing a dense, punchy texture. The rhythm is compact with short extenders and a steady vertical emphasis, while the slant adds continuous motion across words.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, team or event branding, game/arcade title cards, and bold packaging callouts. It works particularly well where a condensed, high-energy look is desired and where sizes are large enough for the tight counters to remain clear.
The overall tone is fast, aggressive, and mechanical, with an energetic, competitive feel reminiscent of motorsport graphics, arcade titles, and utilitarian industrial labeling. Its sharp geometry and strong obliquing convey speed and urgency more than warmth or neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while projecting speed and toughness. Its consistent stroke weight and angular modulation suggest a deliberate, engineered aesthetic aimed at attention-grabbing display typography rather than long-form reading.
At text sizes the tight spacing and reduced internal counters can make words read as dark blocks, while at larger sizes the distinctive angular cuts and squared counters become the primary personality. Numerals match the same compact, engineered construction, supporting bold, data-heavy headlines.
