Sans Superellipse Osgor 2 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Geogrotesque Condensed Series' and 'Geogrotesque Sharp' by Emtype Foundry, 'Otoiwo Grotesk' by Pepper Type, and 'Ddt' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with squared-off, superellipse curves and a tightly controlled rhythm. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to be blunt and clean, producing a blocky silhouette that still feels softened by rounded corners. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, while key joins and apertures stay open enough to keep letterforms readable in short bursts. The uppercase reads as solid and architectural; the lowercase is similarly straightforward, with simple bowls and minimal detailing, and numerals follow the same sturdy, compact construction.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, and bold brand systems where strong typographic color is an asset. It can work well for signage and packaging that need compact, high-visibility labels, and for UI or editorial callouts where a firm, modern emphasis is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, with a contemporary, no-nonsense presence. Rounded-rectangle shaping adds approachability to an otherwise strong, poster-ready voice, giving it a modern industrial feel rather than a purely mechanical one.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to balance strength with friendliness. Its consistent, simplified construction suggests an emphasis on clarity, reproducibility, and a contemporary graphic voice.
The design’s strength comes from its compact width and dense color, which create strong word shapes and high impact. At larger sizes it feels especially crisp and graphic, while at smaller sizes the tight counters and heavy mass may require generous spacing to maintain clarity.
