Sans Other Sevy 8 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Monbloc' by Rui Nogueira and 'Robolt' by Typesketchbook (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, rectilinear sans with tall proportions and tightly contained counters. Strokes are monolinear and terminate in crisp, square ends, with subtle corner notches and stepped joins that give many glyphs a cut, machined feel. Curves are minimized in favor of squared bowls and rounded-rectangle counters, producing a rigid, modular rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Spacing reads intentionally economical, helping the letterforms stack into dense, high-impact lines.
Best suited to display applications where density and impact matter: headlines, poster titling, branding marks, packaging callouts, and environmental or wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for UI labels or tech-themed graphics when used at larger sizes where the tight counters remain clear.
The overall tone is industrial and utilitarian, evoking engineered signage, stamped metal, and retro technical labeling. Its sharp corners and disciplined geometry project firmness and control, with a slightly futuristic, game/arcade-adjacent edge due to the simplified, gridlike construction.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using a modular, squared construction to create a consistent, machine-like voice. The notched joins and restrained curves suggest a purposeful effort to differentiate the letterforms while maintaining a strict geometric system.
Distinctive details include the squared, narrow apertures (notably in C/G/S) and the uniform vertical emphasis across many letters, which reinforces a strong “poster” silhouette. Numerals follow the same rigid logic, keeping forms consistent and highly graphic at display sizes.
