Sans Superellipse Hibej 2 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'ATF Alternate Gothic' by ATF Collection, 'FF Good' and 'FF Good Headline' by FontFont, 'Gratique' by Lemon Studio Type, and 'Trade Gothic Next' by Linotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and compact counters. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a dense, uniform texture. Curves are squarish and superelliptical rather than truly circular, and many apertures are tight (notably in C/S and several lowercase forms), which increases the overall solidity. Terminals are mostly blunt and orthogonal, with occasional angled joins in diagonals; proportions are tall with short extenders and a relatively large x-height for the lowercase.
Best suited to large-scale applications where strong presence matters: headlines, posters, advertising, packaging, and wayfinding/signage. It also fits athletic or industrial branding systems that need compact, high-impact typography in limited horizontal space.
The tone is forceful and workmanlike, leaning more toward practical signage and headline impact than refinement. Its compressed rhythm and closed shapes convey urgency and toughness, with a contemporary, industrial edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a narrow footprint, using superelliptical curves and blunt terminals to maintain a sturdy, uniform color. It prioritizes punchy display readability and space efficiency over airy openness.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, engineered geometry, and the numerals follow the same compact, blocky logic. The boldness and condensed width make the internal whitespace a key differentiator, so letterforms with similar silhouettes can feel closer together at smaller sizes.
