Hollow Other Eblo 2 is a very bold, normal width, very high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Pantograph' by Colophon Foundry, 'Otter' by Hemphill Type, 'Averta PE' by Intelligent Design, 'TT Norms Pro' by TypeType, and 'Aristotelica Pro' by Zetafonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded display face built from inflated, soft-edged strokes with mostly closed counters and simplified geometry. The outlines feel slightly irregular and “puffy,” and many letters include small interior notches and highlight-like cut-ins near stroke edges, creating a hollowed/knockout effect without turning the letters into true outlines. Terminals are bulbous and corners are broadly radiused, while curves (C, S, O) are smooth and circular. Spacing reads fairly open for such a dense design, and the figures match the letters’ rounded, cartoonish construction with similarly cut-in details.
Best suited to short, bold applications where its rounded silhouettes and interior cut-ins can read clearly—such as headlines, posters, event graphics, packaging, playful branding, and kids/entertainment-oriented design. It can also work for large-format signage or title cards where the glossy knockout details have room to show.
The overall tone is cheerful and novelty-forward, with a tactile, candy-coated feel that suggests stickers, toys, and playful branding. The cut-in highlights add a glossy, animated impression, pushing the personality toward fun, youthful, and slightly retro display typography rather than sober text setting.
The design appears intended to deliver a friendly, high-impact display look with a distinctive hollowed highlight motif that adds depth and motion. Its softened geometry and chunky forms prioritize approachability and immediate recognition in branding and promotional contexts.
The internal cutouts are placed inconsistently enough to feel intentionally hand-tuned, giving the alphabet a lively, characterful rhythm. Simpler shapes like I, L, and T lean on the highlight knockouts for distinction, while rounded forms carry the personality through their swollen proportions and soft joins.
