Sans Normal Osmel 4 is a very bold, normal width, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Proza' by Bureau Roffa, 'Sharik Sans' by Dada Studio, 'FF Kievit' by FontFont, 'Mato Sans' by Picador, and 'Calluna Sans' by exljbris (names referenced only for comparison).

A very heavy, rounded sans with soft, blunt terminals and generously filled counters that stay open at display sizes. The letterforms lean on simple circular and elliptical construction, but with deliberate irregularity: strokes and joins vary subtly, and many glyphs sit with a gently wavy, hand-set rhythm rather than a rigidly level baseline. Curves are broad and smooth, corners are minimally sharpened, and diagonals (as in V/W/Y) feel chunky and compact. Numerals match the same robust, rounded construction and read as bold, poster-like figures.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of copy where its bold color and bouncy rhythm can carry the message. It fits posters, packaging, stickers, and playful brand marks, and can work well for kids-oriented or casual food/retail branding where a friendly, chunky presence is desired.
The overall tone is cheerful and informal, with a slightly mischievous, off-kilter energy that keeps it from feeling corporate or neutral. Its bounce and unevenness suggest handmade signage or playful packaging, while the dense weight gives it confidence and volume.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a warm, approachable voice—pairing rounded, geometric foundations with subtle, humanized irregularities to create a distinctive, playful display sans.
The texture is intentionally non-uniform across the alphabet, creating a lively cadence in words. At larger sizes the shapes feel inviting and soft; in longer lines the heavy color and irregular rhythm become a strong stylistic voice rather than a background text choice.
