Sans Normal Nogef 2 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Bilya Layered' by Cerri Antonio, 'Proper Tavern' by Larin Type Co, 'Devinyl' by Nootype, and 'Glendale' by Sarid Ezra (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with sculpted, wedge-like terminals and softly notched joins that create a chiseled-yet-bubbly silhouette. Curves are full and circular, counters are open and generous, and many strokes end in angled cuts that add rhythm and a slightly irregular, hand-shaped feel. The lowercase shows compact, sturdy forms with single-storey a and g, a deep-tailed j, and a distinctive, angular x; numerals are robust with rounded bowls and sharp diagonal accents (notably 2, 4, and 7). Overall spacing reads comfortable and the texture is dense without feeling cramped, producing a strong, poster-friendly color on the page.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, product packaging, and brand marks where its chunky forms and lively terminals can carry the voice. It also works well for playful editorial callouts, event graphics, and kids or entertainment-oriented design where a friendly, characterful sans is desired.
The font projects a bold, upbeat personality with a humorous, slightly mischievous edge. Its rounded massing feels approachable and friendly, while the angular cuts and playful asymmetries introduce energy and character reminiscent of retro signage and cartoon titling.
Likely drawn to deliver a bold, approachable display voice that stands apart from neutral grotesques by combining rounded geometry with angled, chiseled terminals. The intent appears to be strong readability at larger sizes while emphasizing a fun, retro-leaning personality and distinctive word shapes.
The design mixes smooth, circular bowls with consistent angled shears on terminals, giving letters a recognizable “carved” signature across both cases. Uppercase forms stay stable and geometric, while lowercase details (ear on r, spur-like terminals, and the directional cuts on s and t) contribute to a lively, animated word shape.
