Sans Superellipse Pigak 1 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Tungsten' by Hoefler & Co., 'Kuunari' and 'Kuunari Rounded' by Melvastype, 'Grand' by North Type, and 'Entropia' by Slava Antipov (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, heavy sans with compact proportions and a tall lowercase presence. Curves are built from squarish, rounded-rectangle forms, giving bowls and counters a superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Strokes stay broadly even, terminals are clean and flat, and joins are crisp with minimal modulation. Overall spacing is tight and vertical, producing a dense rhythm that reads as strong and efficient in display settings.
Best suited to short, high-impact typography such as posters, headlines, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and attention-grabbing signage. It can also work for UI labels or badges where space is limited and a strong silhouette is needed, but its density suggests avoiding long passages of small text.
The font conveys a tough, no-nonsense tone with a contemporary industrial edge. Its condensed heft feels sporty and promotional, projecting urgency and confidence rather than softness or refinement.
The design appears intended to maximize impact in a narrow footprint, combining strong verticality with rounded-rectangle construction for a modern, industrial display voice.
Round letters like C, G, O, and Q keep noticeably squared shoulders, which heightens the engineered look. Numerals are similarly stout and compact, matching the uppercase’s presence for impactful, uniform titling.
