Sans Superellipse Hidaf 1 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Cybersport' by Anton Kokoshka, 'European Sans Pro' and 'European Soft Pro' by Bülent Yüksel, 'Hanley Pro' by District 62 Studio, 'Panton' by Fontfabric, and 'Lintel' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded-geometry sans with boxy, superellipse-like bowls and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, creating compact counters and a strong, even color in text. Curves resolve into squarish rounds rather than perfect circles, and joins are clean and abrupt, keeping forms tidy and mechanical. Uppercase letters are broad and stable, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, single-storey construction where applicable, with short extenders and sturdy stems.
Best suited to display settings where mass and shape are assets—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and bold UI labels. It can work in short text blocks when set large with ample spacing, but its tight counters and dense texture make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and approachable at once: confident, slightly playful, and decidedly utilitarian. The rounded-square construction reads modern and tech-adjacent, with a friendly softness that prevents the weight from feeling aggressive.
Likely designed to deliver maximum presence through simplified, rounded-rectangular forms that stay clean under heavy weight. The goal appears to be a contemporary, approachable display voice that feels engineered and consistent across letters and numbers.
Counters are relatively small for the weight, which increases impact but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. The numerals follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic and feel particularly solid and sign-like. Rhythm in text is tight and compact, with minimal stroke contrast and an emphasis on consistent, chunky silhouettes.
