Sans Superellipse Pebez 7 is a bold, narrow, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Myriad' by Adobe, 'Intercom' and 'Intercom Tamil' by Indian Type Foundry, 'Sans Beam' by Stawix, and 'Indecise' by Tipo Pèpel (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with a geometric skeleton built from rounded-rectangle curves and straight-sided counters. Strokes are consistently thick with crisp, squared terminals and minimal modulation, producing a dense, solid texture in text. Curves (C, G, O, S and the bowls in b/d/p/q) read as superelliptical rather than purely circular, and joins are clean and tight with little or no ink-trap behavior. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (notably a and g) with short, robust ascenders and compact apertures, prioritizing firmness over airiness.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of copy where a compact, high-impact voice is needed—posters, branding marks, packaging, and wayfinding/signage. It can work for subheads and UI labels when space is limited, though the dense counters suggest avoiding very small sizes or low-contrast reproduction.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a slightly retro industrial flavor that feels at home in signage and display settings. Its compact width and blocky rhythm convey efficiency and authority more than softness or elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual strength in a space-efficient footprint, using superelliptical geometry and squared terminals to create a modern-industrial, display-oriented sans that remains consistent across letters and figures.
In the sample text, the tight interior spaces and squared shaping create strong word silhouettes and high impact at large sizes. The numerals match the letterforms with the same rounded-rectangle construction and sturdy, uniform weight, supporting a cohesive typographic voice across alphanumerics.
