Sans Other Rynoh 3 is a bold, narrow, high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Enza Expanded' by Neo Type Foundry, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, and 'Shtozer' by Pepper Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, all-vertical sans with a modular, rectilinear build and sharply cut terminals. Strokes are heavy and predominantly straight, with frequent internal slits/counters that read like inlaid gaps rather than open bowls, producing a strong light–dark rhythm. Curves are minimized and often resolved into squared corners or beveled joins, giving round letters a faceted, engineered feel. Capitals are tall and rigid; lowercase follows the same architecture with simplified forms and tight apertures, maintaining a consistent, grid-like texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where impact and a strong graphic voice are desired—posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging, and signage. It can also work for short UI labels or section headers when a strict, industrial tone is appropriate, but its dense texture makes it less ideal for extended body text.
The overall tone is severe and architectural, blending a techno-industrial voice with a faint blackletter echo through its verticality and pointed cuts. It feels mechanical, disciplined, and slightly ominous, making even neutral copy read like signage or system labeling.
This design appears aimed at delivering a bold, engineered display sans that reads instantly at large sizes, using condensed proportions, angular detailing, and interior cutouts to create a distinctive, hard-edged identity.
In longer lines, the condensed width and frequent interior cutouts create strong vertical striping; spacing and rhythm feel intentionally tight and uniform. Distinctive forms like the pointed-bottom "V"/"U" shapes and slit-like counters emphasize a constructed, stencil-adjacent look without fully breaking strokes.
