Sans Normal Itdol 2 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Midnight Sans' by Colophon Foundry, 'Tactic Sans' by Miller Type Foundry, and 'Hyperspace Race' and 'Hyperspace Race Capsule' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, extended sans with rounded-corner geometry and smooth, low‑contrast curves. Counters are generously open and shapes favor broad, flattened ovals, giving letters like C, O, and G a horizontal, aerodynamic feel. Strokes are consistently thick with squared terminals softened by subtle rounding, and joins stay clean and sturdy in diagonals and arches. Lowercase forms are large relative to capitals, with simple, compact bowls and short extenders, producing a dense, display-forward rhythm in text.
Best suited to large-scale applications where its mass and width can be appreciated: headlines, posters, sports or tech branding, and bold interface or packaging callouts. It can also work for short signage and titling, but the dense weight and broad proportions make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone feels modern and engineered—assertive, streamlined, and slightly futuristic. Its wide stance and compact interior detailing read as athletic and tech-oriented, with a confident, headline-ready presence rather than a quiet editorial voice.
The font appears intended as a strong, contemporary display sans that emphasizes width, impact, and a smooth geometric build. It prioritizes immediate recognition and a modern, performance-oriented feel, aiming to look sturdy and efficient across attention-grabbing typography.
The design keeps a uniform, mechanical logic across letters and numerals, favoring stability over calligraphic nuance. Curved letters lean toward elliptical construction, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) maintain crisp edges, creating a clear geometric contrast that stays cohesive at large sizes.
