Sans Normal Miza 6 is a very bold, very wide, medium contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Cy Grotesk' and 'Cy Grotesk Std' by Kobuzan and 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with a wide stance and compact internal counters. The forms combine soft, circular bowls with flat, squared terminals, creating a distinctly chunky silhouette. Curves are generously swollen and simplified, while joins and shoulders stay blunt and geometric rather than calligraphic. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and stout ascenders/descenders, with consistent, sturdy stems and relatively small apertures that emphasize mass and density. Numerals and capitals share the same inflated geometry and broad proportions, producing a strong, uniform texture in lines of text.
Best suited for display settings where impact and personality are priorities—posters, large headlines, branding marks, packaging, and short promotional lines. It works especially well when set large with generous spacing, allowing the rounded shapes and dense weight to read clearly.
The overall tone feels playful and attention-grabbing, with a retro, poster-like friendliness. Its exaggerated weight and rounded geometry read as approachable and humorous rather than formal, giving headlines a bold, pop-culture energy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence with a friendly, rounded voice. By pairing inflated curves with flat terminals and compact counters, it aims to create a distinctive, high-impact display texture that feels retro and approachable.
In continuous text the tight counters and small openings can make word shapes feel compact and dark, which heightens impact but reduces delicacy. The rhythm is broad and steady, with prominent rounded bowls and blunt cutoffs that keep the look cohesive across cases and figures.
