Sans Superellipse Idnuy 4 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Mako' by Deltatype, 'Akkordeon' by Emtype Foundry, 'PODIUM Sharp' and 'PODIUM Soft' by Machalski, and 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-like sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and strongly softened corners. Curves are squarish and controlled, counters are relatively small, and terminals are clean and blunt, producing dense, high-impact word shapes. Proportions lean compact with short extenders and a prominent x-height, while bowls and shoulders keep a consistent, engineered radius across the set. Overall spacing and rhythm feel tight and sturdy, favoring solid silhouettes over fine interior detail.
Best suited to large-scale display applications where weight and silhouette do the work: headlines, posters, and impactful brand marks. It can also serve well on packaging and labels that need quick shelf read, and in sports or event graphics where a strong, compact sans helps deliver urgency and energy.
The tone is bold and assertive with a sporty, workmanlike confidence. Its rounded edges add friendliness to an otherwise muscular, utilitarian voice, making it feel energetic rather than severe. The result reads as modern and punchy, suited to attention-grabbing messages.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through simplified, rounded-rectangular forms and compact proportions, balancing toughness with approachability. Its consistent geometry suggests a focus on creating a cohesive, logo-friendly system that stays legible and bold in short bursts of text.
The figures follow the same squared-round logic, staying wide and stable with minimal modulation. At smaller sizes the small counters and dense strokes can reduce interior clarity, but at display sizes the consistent geometry produces strong, memorable shapes.
