Sans Other Obbu 9 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Heavy Duty' by Gerald Gallo, 'Manufaktur' by Great Scott, 'Midfield' by Kreuk Type Foundry, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, 'Amboy' by Parkinson, and 'Huberica' by The Native Saint Club (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with rigid geometry and pronounced chamfered corners. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness, while many joins are cut into sharp angles or clipped diagonals, creating an octagonal, machined silhouette. Counters are tight and mostly rectangular, with frequent notches and inset cutaways that introduce a semi-stenciled, modular feel. The lowercase largely mirrors the uppercase structure, keeping a uniform, constructed rhythm; numerals follow the same squared, cut-corner logic for a cohesive, poster-ready texture.
Best suited to display contexts such as headlines, posters, titles, branding marks, and packaging where bold, engineered letterforms are desired. It also fits gaming and tech-forward UI accents or labels, particularly when used at medium-to-large sizes for maximum clarity of the cut-corner details.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, evoking arcade cabinets, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Its blunt shapes and tight internal spaces give it a high-impact, no-nonsense character that reads as modern, tough, and slightly retro-digital.
The likely intention is to deliver a strong, modular display face with a fabricated, machine-cut aesthetic—combining compact, rectangular construction with angled clipping to create a distinctive, high-impact texture in words and numbers.
The design’s clipped terminals and inset apertures produce distinctive word shapes but also reduce openness, especially in smaller sizes where counters can appear dense. It performs best when given breathing room through generous tracking and line spacing, letting the angular detailing remain legible.
