Sans Superellipse Tegab 4 is a very bold, narrow, medium contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype; 'PG Gothique' by Paulo Goode; and 'Calps', 'Calps Sans', and 'Kelpt' by Typesketchbook (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and blunt terminals. Strokes are largely uniform, with softened corners and slightly irregular, inked edges that give a stamped or worn print texture. Counters are small and often squarish (notably in O, P, R, e), and curves tend to resolve into flattened arcs rather than perfect circles. Lowercase forms keep a tall, sturdy profile with minimal contrast between stems and bowls, while numerals match the same blocky, softened geometry.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, logos, packaging, and bold labels where the chunky silhouettes and softened corners can carry the design. The dense counters and narrow set suggest avoiding very small sizes or long passages, where texture and tight interior space may reduce readability.
The overall tone is assertive yet approachable: loud, poster-ready weight combined with soft corners and a slightly distressed finish. It reads as casual and hand-pressed, suggesting retro signage, packaging, or screen-printed graphics rather than sleek corporate minimalism.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint using rounded-rectangle forms, with a deliberately imperfect edge to evoke analog printing. The intention appears to balance friendliness (soft corners) with strength (blocky mass) for energetic, characterful display typography.
Spacing and rhythm feel intentionally uneven in a natural way, reinforcing the tactile, printed impression. Round letters (C, G, O, S) appear more superelliptical than circular, and joins/shoulders (n, m, h) are simplified and muscular for strong silhouette clarity at display sizes.
