Sans Normal Jenay 7 is a bold, very wide, low contrast, italic, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Arupala Grotesk' by Jetsmax Studio, 'Neue Helvetica' and 'Neue Helvetica Paneuropean' by Linotype, and 'Fander' by Roman Melikhov (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, obliqued sans with broad, rounded forms and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes remain largely even, giving the letters a dense, blocky color, while the slant and wide stance create forward motion. Counters are relatively tight in letters like a, e, and s, and terminals are clean and blunt rather than tapered. Uppercase shapes read as simple geometric constructions (notably the round O and C), paired with robust diagonals in K, V, W, X, and Y; the numerals match the same chunky, rounded structure for a consistent texture in running text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, and bold packaging statements. It can also work for attention-grabbing UI labels or signage where a strong, slanted sans helps convey motion and urgency.
The overall tone is energetic and performance-oriented, combining a strong, high-impact presence with a sleek sense of speed from the oblique angle. It feels contemporary and utilitarian rather than delicate, aiming for immediacy and punch.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, modern voice with maximum visual weight, pairing wide, rounded geometry with an oblique stance to emphasize momentum and confidence in display typography.
In the sample text, the heavy weight and tight internal spaces create a compact rhythm, especially at smaller sizes or in long lines. The oblique angle is prominent and consistent across letters and figures, helping headlines feel urgent and directional.
