Sans Superellipse Osbiy 1 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Mervato' by Arterfak Project, 'Muller Next' by Fontfabric, 'Futura Now' by Monotype, 'Akwe Pro' by ROHH, and 'Marble' by URW Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with squared-off construction softened by consistently rounded corners. Strokes stay largely uniform, producing a solid, poster-like color, while counters are relatively tight and geometric, often reading as rounded rectangles. Curves on C, G, O, and S feel controlled and mechanical rather than calligraphic, and terminals tend to end in flat, vertical cuts that reinforce a sturdy rhythm. The lowercase shows simple, utilitarian forms with single-storey a and g, short extenders, and a dense overall texture that holds together well at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short-form copy where impact is the priority—posters, promotional graphics, packaging, and brand marks that need a strong, compact word shape. It also fits sporty or industrial-themed visual systems and interface moments that call for bold labels or section headers.
The font conveys a confident, no-nonsense tone—punchy and contemporary with a slightly engineered feel. Its rounded-rectangle geometry adds friendliness to an otherwise tough, compressed voice, making it feel energetic rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a condensed footprint, using superellipse-like rounding to keep the tone approachable while maintaining a robust, geometric structure. Consistent stroke weight and compact proportions suggest a focus on clarity and punch in display-driven applications.
Numerals follow the same compact, geometric logic, with rounded rectangular bowls and minimal stroke modulation for strong consistency across text and display settings. The overall spacing and tight counters create a continuous, dark typographic mass that emphasizes presence and immediacy.
