Sans Superellipse Tidat 4 is a very bold, narrow, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Gotham' by Hoefler & Co., 'DIN Next' and 'DIN Next Paneuropean' by Monotype, 'Fact' by ParaType, 'Belle Sans' by Park Street Studio, 'Earthboy' by Supfonts, 'LFT Etica' by TypeTogether, and 'Eastman Condensed' by Zetafonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with subtly irregular edges that read like printed ink or stamped lettering rather than clean vector geometry. Counters are tight and simplified, terminals are blunt, and curves tend to resolve into flattened arcs and squarish bowls. The overall rhythm is dense and vertical, with sturdy forms, minimal flourish, and a slightly uneven texture across letters and figures.
Best suited for high-impact display settings such as posters, brand marks, packaging, labels, and punchy editorial headings where texture and density are advantages. It can also work for short UI banners or signage when a stamped, retro-industrial voice is desired, but the tight counters and heavy weight make it less ideal for extended small-size reading.
The font conveys a vintage, workmanlike tone—part poster, part rubber-stamp—mixing friendliness from the rounded shapes with grit from the roughened outlines. It feels bold and direct, with a casual handmade energy that can read as nostalgic or utilitarian depending on context.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in a compact footprint, using rounded-rectangular geometry for approachability while adding roughened edges to evoke print, stamp, or worn signage. The goal seems to be a bold display face with a tactile, analog feel that remains simple and highly legible at headline sizes.
Uppercase forms stay compact and boxy, while lowercase maintains clear, simplified silhouettes; the dotted i/j use squared dots that match the blunt terminal language. Numerals are similarly stout and graphic, suited to short bursts of information rather than delicate typographic nuance.
