Hollow Other Ebni 1 is a very bold, wide, very high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Oktah Round' by Groteskly Yours, 'Duplet Rounded' by Indian Type Foundry, 'Linotte' by JCFonts, and 'Hupaisa' by Melvastype (names referenced only for comparison).

A rounded, heavy display face built from swollen, blobby strokes with softly squared terminals and generous curves. The letterforms are largely monoline in feel, but feature distinctive internal knockouts and pinhole-like highlights that create a hollowed, cut-out look and add sparkle within counters and along strokes. Proportions are broad with ample set width, and spacing appears open enough to keep the dense shapes from clogging. Subtle irregularities and uneven inner cutouts introduce a hand-drawn, inky rhythm while maintaining a consistent silhouette across the alphabet and numerals.
Best suited to short, attention-getting text such as headlines, posters, playful branding, and packaging where the bubbly silhouettes and internal cutouts can be appreciated. It also works well for children’s products, casual entertainment, and social graphics that benefit from an upbeat, cartoon-like presence.
The overall tone is cheerful and comic, with a toy-like softness and a slightly mischievous, sticker-style energy. The interior cutouts read like highlights or scoops, giving the design a lively, confectionary personality that feels informal and approachable.
The design appears intended as a characterful display font that combines chunky, rounded forms with decorative hollow details to create a distinctive, high-impact texture. Its emphasis is on personality and visual flavor rather than neutrality, aiming to stand out in titles and branding contexts.
Counters are generally large and rounded, helping legibility despite the heavy mass. The internal knockouts vary in size and placement, which adds charm but also makes the texture more prominent at smaller sizes; it reads best when the hollow details can stay visible.
