Sans Superellipse Upro 3 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Gemsbuck 01' and 'Gemsbuck Pro' by Studio Fat Cat and 'Hyperspace Race' and 'Hyperspace Race Capsule' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) logic, with broad proportions and a dense, even color on the page. Curves are squared-off with generous corner radii, producing boxy counters (notably in O/0 and related shapes) and smooth, continuous outer contours. Strokes maintain a largely uniform thickness with minimal modulation, while apertures and joins are tightened for a sturdy, engineered feel. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with simplified forms and short extenders, reinforcing a compact, high-impact rhythm; numerals follow the same squared, rounded architecture for consistent texture in mixed settings.
Best suited to display typography where its bold mass and rounded-square geometry can be appreciated—headlines, brand marks, product names, posters, and packaging. It also works well for UI labels, dashboards, and signage when set with ample size and spacing to avoid crowding in longer text.
The overall tone is modern and machine-made, with a confident, performance-oriented presence. Its rounded-square geometry suggests contemporary tech, automotive, and sport contexts, projecting efficiency, strength, and a slightly retro-futurist edge.
The font appears designed to deliver a strong, contemporary voice built on superellipse geometry, prioritizing visual impact, consistency across letters and numerals, and a clean, engineered silhouette for modern display use.
The design’s soft corners temper its mass, keeping large sizes readable while preserving a distinctly angular silhouette. Counters tend to be squarish and relatively tight, which increases punch in headlines but can make dense paragraphs feel heavy at smaller sizes.
