Sans Superellipse Ifbi 6 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Geogrotesque Sharp' by Emtype Foundry, 'Navine' by OneSevenPointFive, 'PT Filter' by Paavola Type Studio, 'Gemsbuck Pro' by Studio Fat Cat, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with a distinctly squarish construction and broadly radiused corners. Strokes are monolinear and compact, with generous interior counters that stay open despite the weight. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls (notably in O, C, G, 0), while horizontals and verticals end in blunt, softened terminals. The lowercase follows the same geometric logic, producing sturdy, low-detail forms with minimal modulation and tight-looking joins that read cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to high-impact applications such as headlines, posters, brand wordmarks, packaging panels, and sports or team-style graphics. It can also work for UI labels, wayfinding, or product titling where a bold, friendly-industrial voice and strong silhouette are desired.
The overall tone is confident and utilitarian, with a contemporary industrial feel and a hint of vintage athletic signage. Its chunky geometry and rounded corners make it feel approachable while still projecting impact and authority.
The design appears intended to maximize presence and legibility through a simplified, superelliptical geometry: blunt, rounded forms; open counters; and consistent stroke weight. The goal seems to be a strong, modern display sans that feels engineered and dependable while remaining visually friendly.
The figures echo the same rounded-rectangular skeleton as the letters, giving numerals a cohesive, sign-ready presence. Round letters and bowls appear slightly squashed into rectangular proportions, emphasizing a technical, engineered rhythm across lines of text.
