Sans Superellipse Poriw 9 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Bekar' by Clevus, 'Metroline' and 'Superline' by Kavoon, 'Hype vol 2' by Positype, and 'Rasedron' by Sealoung (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, heavy sans with tall proportions and tightly controlled counters. Strokes are largely monolinear and terminate in squared ends with subtly softened, rounded corners, giving the shapes a superellipse-like feel rather than sharp geometry. Curves are compact and upright, with narrow bowls and apertures that stay open enough to read at display sizes, while the overall rhythm is strongly vertical and space-efficient.
Best suited to display typography where impact and vertical economy are priorities—headlines, posters, packaging panels, and bold brand marks. It can also work for short signage and labels, especially where a strong condensed voice is needed, but it will feel dense for long-form text.
The tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its compressed stance and dense black shape evoke poster headlines, industrial labeling, and a slightly retro display attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in limited horizontal space, using a simplified, rounded-rectangular construction to keep forms sturdy and consistent. It prioritizes bold presence, compact width, and a cohesive, industrial geometry across letters and figures.
Round letters like O and C appear built from rounded-rectangle logic, producing flattened curves and a sturdy, engineered look. Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent narrow skeleton, and the numerals match the same condensed, high-impact construction for cohesive headline setting.
