Sans Superellipse Oslav 4 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Ciutadella' and 'Isotonic' by Emtype Foundry, 'Moderna Condensed' by Los Andes, 'Opinion Pro' by Mint Type, 'Boxed' and 'Boxed Round' by Tipo Pèpel, and 'NotaBene' by Wiescher Design (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with squared-round construction: curves read like rounded rectangles, and straight strokes terminate in clean, flat ends. Counters are relatively tight and compact, producing a dense color and strong presence. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) lean toward superelliptical shapes, while joins and corners stay controlled and minimally softened. The lowercase is straightforward and functional, with simple single-storey forms and sturdy stems; overall spacing feels even and built for impact rather than delicacy.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, and packaging where a dense, confident texture helps text hold attention. It also reads well for signage and UI labels at larger sizes, where the squared-round geometry can support a clean, modern system.
The tone is contemporary and no-nonsense, with an industrial, signage-like confidence. Its compact counters and squared-round curves give it a pragmatic, engineered feel—more about clarity and authority than warmth or whimsy.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary geometric workhorse that combines strict, engineered shapes with softened superelliptical rounds. The emphasis is on strong readability and consistent, system-like forms that remain distinctive through their squared-round curvature and compact counters.
Capitals are broad and stable with consistent stroke strength, and the numerals match the same squared-round logic for a cohesive texture. Diagonal forms like K, V, W, X, and Y are sharply cut, adding energy to an otherwise very controlled, modular rhythm.
