Sans Normal Mebim 3 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Galvani' by Hoftype; 'Caracas' by John Moore Type Foundry; 'Fact' by ParaType; and 'Clinto', 'Inovasi', and 'Nova Pro' by XdCreative (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and tightly packed inner counters. Letterforms are built from sturdy, rounded shapes with softened corners and smooth curves, paired with crisp, sheared terminals that emphasize forward motion. The stroke weight stays visually even, creating a dense, high-impact texture; crossbars and apertures tend to be compact, and punctuation/dots read as bold, circular marks. Numerals follow the same robust, streamlined construction for a uniform, poster-like rhythm.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and sports or action-oriented branding. It can also work for product packaging, merch, or title treatments where a bold, kinetic voice is needed, but is less ideal for extended body text.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and upbeat, with a clear athletic and promotional feel. Its strong oblique stance and compact openings give it a “go-forward” energy that reads as confident and attention-grabbing rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a sense of speed and modern punch, using a strong slant, broad stance, and compact counters to create a cohesive, display-driven texture.
The combination of broad set width and dense black shapes produces a strong horizontal presence, especially in all-caps. In longer phrases the tight counters and heavy texture can reduce clarity at smaller sizes, so it benefits from generous size and spacing.
