Sans Superellipse Gigor 5 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Flexo' and 'Flexo Soft' by Durotype, 'Mercurial' by Grype, 'Dark Sport' by Sentavio, and 'Quan Geometric' by Typesketchbook (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with squarish, superellipse-based curves and generously rounded outer corners. Strokes are consistently thick with low contrast, producing compact counters and a sturdy, poster-like color on the page. Terminals are predominantly flat and horizontal/vertical, with occasional angled joins in letters like K, V, W, X, and Y. Round letters (O, Q, o) read as rounded rectangles rather than circles, and the numerals follow the same condensed, blocky construction with wide curves and clipped-looking joins.
Best suited for display settings where strong presence matters: headlines, posters, event graphics, packaging, and brand marks. Its chunky construction and rounded-rectangle forms also work well for signage and UI moments that need bold labels or badges, especially when set with ample size and breathing room.
The overall tone is confident and utilitarian, with a friendly edge coming from the rounded corners. It reads as sporty and industrial at once—bold, direct, and slightly retro—well suited to attention-grabbing messaging. The squared curves give it a mechanical, engineered feel while staying approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through simplified, geometric construction and rounded-rectangle curves, balancing hardness (flat terminals, blocky proportions) with approachability (rounded corners). It aims for a contemporary display voice with clear nods to industrial and athletic typography.
Spacing and internal shapes emphasize tight apertures and compact bowls, which helps create strong impact at larger sizes. The lowercase keeps a sturdy, simplified structure (single-storey a, blocky g), reinforcing the font’s geometric, sign-paint–adjacent personality. The Q features a clear tail, and the punctuation in the sample text appears robust and weight-matched to the letterforms.
