Sans Superellipse Ogkad 5 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Protrakt Variable' by Arkitype, 'Navine' by OneSevenPointFive, 'PT Filter' by Paavola Type Studio, and 'Reload' by Reserves (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with a squared-up skeleton and generously softened corners. The design relies on superelliptical geometry: bowls and counters read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles, and terminals are blunt and clean. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, producing dense, compact letterforms and small-to-moderate apertures. Lowercase shapes are built on a tall x-height with short ascenders and descenders, while numerals are wide, sturdy, and tightly enclosed; overall spacing feels even and utilitarian, with a slightly condensed, sign-ready rhythm.
Best suited to display use where maximum impact is needed—headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks that want a bold, rounded-technical character. It also works well for signage and wayfinding-style graphics, especially when set with generous tracking or in short phrases.
The tone is bold and confident with a friendly edge—more rugged and practical than elegant. The rounded-square construction gives it a contemporary, industrial feel that also reads approachable, making it well suited to energetic, high-impact messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-density, high-contrast-in-mass silhouette that stays clean and legible while projecting a modern, robust personality. Its rounded-rectangle construction suggests an emphasis on contemporary industrial branding and attention-grabbing display typography.
The lowercase keeps a strong, geometric presence (notably in the single-storey-style simplicity and the squared bowls), which helps maintain consistency at large sizes. Counters tend to be squared and relatively tight, emphasizing weight and punch over openness.
