Sans Other Ibri 6 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Izmir' by Ahmet Altun, 'Nicky Sans' by Digitype Studio, 'Steradian' by Emtype Foundry, 'Heavitas Neue' by Graphite, 'Glence' by Nine Font, and 'Gilmer' by Piotr Łapa (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy geometric sans with pronounced stencil-like breaks and notched joins that create a segmented, constructed feel. Curves are broadly rounded but frequently interrupted by straight cuts, while diagonals (notably in V, W, N, and y) read as sharp, engineered strokes. Counters are generally open and simplified, terminals are mostly flat, and several letters feature deliberate gaps or internal slits that add rhythm and texture. The overall spacing and proportions favor clear, punchy silhouettes, with distinctive, slightly unconventional lowercase forms and compact, blocky numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where the segmented details can be appreciated at larger sizes. It also works well for signage, packaging, and tech-leaning identities that want a manufactured or engineered edge. For extended small-size text, the internal cuts may become visually busy, so moderate-to-large settings are the most effective.
The tone is industrial and architectural, evoking signage, machinery labeling, and sci‑fi interface typography. Its cut-in details and modular logic give it a purposeful, engineered character that feels contemporary yet nods to retro-futurist display lettering.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, constructed sans that stands apart from standard geometric grotesks by introducing systematic breaks and notches. Those details create instant recognizability and a strong graphic voice while keeping overall letterforms simple and readable.
The signature visual motif is the recurring split/slot treatment—seen across rounds and stems—which reads like stencil bridges or segmented construction. In longer text, these interruptions produce a strong patterning effect, making the design feel more like a display face than a neutral workhorse.
