Sans Superellipse Omden 4 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Olpal' by Bunny Dojo, 'Meimidle' and 'Rackmon' by Letterhend, 'Prelo Compressed' by Monotype, and 'Morale' by Sensatype Studio (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with a tall, condensed stance and pronounced rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry. Strokes stay largely even, with squared terminals softened by subtle rounding and occasional notch-like cut-ins that act like ink traps at joins and tight counters. The apertures and counters are relatively small, giving the forms a dense, poster-ready texture; curves like C, G, O, and S read as squared-off rounds rather than circles. Numerals and capitals share the same blunt, compact construction, producing a consistent, tightly packed rhythm across text and display sizes.
Best suited to high-impact display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, labels, and bold brand marks where density and punch are an advantage. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation items when space is limited, provided sizes and spacing are generous enough to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a slightly retro, workwear energy. Its compact shapes and squared rounds feel engineered and utilitarian, while the softened corners keep it approachable rather than harsh. The result is a confident voice that reads as assertive, sporty, and industrial.
This design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence in a narrow footprint, using squared-round forms and controlled ink-trap-like notches to keep heavy shapes readable. The consistent superellipse construction suggests an intention to feel modern-mechanical while retaining a familiar, retro-leaning solidity.
The typeface shows a strong vertical emphasis and a tight interior space that increases impact in headlines but can make long passages feel dense. The superelliptical rounding is consistent across bowls and shoulders, helping keep the family look cohesive even in mixed-case settings.
