Sans Superellipse Rakiv 7 is a bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Buket' by Ahmet Altun, 'Neumatic Gothic' and 'Neumatic Gothic Round' by Arkitype, 'Marteau' by Little Giant, and 'PODIUM Sharp' by Machalski (names referenced only for comparison).

A tall, tightly condensed sans with a monoline feel and soft, squared-off curves that read like rounded rectangles. Strokes are sturdy and uniform, with compact counters and a consistent vertical rhythm. Round letters such as O, C, and G appear more superelliptical than circular, while diagonals (A, V, W, X) are clean and economical. Terminals are generally blunt with lightly rounded corners, giving the design a crisp, engineered silhouette.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and branding where vertical compactness and strong presence are useful. It can also work for packaging and signage systems that need high impact in limited horizontal space, especially in short phrases and all-caps settings.
The overall tone is functional and no-nonsense, with an industrial, contemporary voice. Its narrow, towering proportions add urgency and emphasis, making it feel assertive and space-efficient rather than friendly or leisurely.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual strength and legibility in a compressed footprint, using superelliptical roundness to soften a strict, engineered structure. It prioritizes a consistent rhythm and compact letterfit for dense, attention-grabbing typography.
In the sample text, the tight apertures and compact interior spaces increase density, which amplifies impact at display sizes. Numerals and uppercase share the same condensed architecture, producing a uniform, poster-ready texture across mixed text.
