Sans Normal Komuy 9 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Altersan' by Eko Bimantara, 'Famiar' by Mans Greback, 'Acto' by Monotype, and 'NuOrder' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A slanted sans with sturdy, even stroke weight and smooth, rounded curves. The forms are built from simple geometric shapes with softly squared terminals and minimal detailing, producing a clean silhouette. Counters are open and round (notably in O, Q, and 8), while diagonals and joins feel crisp and slightly condensed in rhythm. The lowercase is straightforward and single‑storey where expected (a, g), with a tall, narrow impression created by the oblique angle and tight internal spacing.
Best suited for short to mid-length display settings where impact and clarity matter—headlines, posters, and campaign lines. The strong, slanted voice also fits sports branding, product packaging, and prominent UI labels where a sense of speed or emphasis is desirable.
The overall tone is active and forward-leaning, suggesting motion and assertiveness. Its compact, no-nonsense shapes read as contemporary and performance-oriented rather than delicate or expressive. The italic stance adds a sense of speed and urgency that suits energetic messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, energetic sans voice with an italicized, action-forward stance. By keeping stroke contrast low and shapes geometrically simple, it prioritizes bold presence and quick recognition in display contexts.
Numerals are robust and highly legible, with clear differentiation between shapes (e.g., 6/9 and 3/8). The Q has a distinct, simple tail and the S maintains a smooth, continuous curve, reinforcing the font’s consistent geometric construction.
