Sans Superellipse Hirup 2 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Future Bugler Upright' by Breauhare, 'Judgement' by Device, 'Design System' by Dharma Type, 'Magpie' by Elster Fonts, 'Environ' by MADType, and 'Stallman' and 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle forms, with consistently softened corners and near-monoline construction. Counters are compact and mostly squarish, and many joins are clean and orthogonal, producing a crisp, modular rhythm. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short ascenders/descenders and simplified, single-storey shapes, while capitals stay broad-shouldered and tightly enclosed. Numerals and punctuation follow the same squared, softened logic, yielding a uniform, screen-friendly texture in lines of text.
Best suited for display typography where clarity and punch matter: headlines, posters, packaging, wayfinding, product UI labels, and tech/industrial branding. It also works for logos or wordmarks that want a modular, rounded-rect aesthetic, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is bold and technological, evoking digital signage, arcade interfaces, and industrial labeling. Rounded corners keep it approachable, but the tight counters and squared forms make it feel purposeful and machine-made.
The design appears intended to translate a superellipse/rounded-rectangle geometry into an all-purpose display sans: strong presence, consistent corner treatment, and compact counters for a bold, systematized look across letters and figures.
Distinctive details include the squared, rounded-corner bowls (notably in B/D/O/P) and the compact, engineered look of curves in letters like S and G. In paragraph setting, the dense interior spaces increase darkness and impact, favoring short bursts of copy over long reading.
