Sans Superellipse Etguk 2 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'PODIUM Sharp' by Machalski, 'Base Neue' by Power Type, 'TS Plakette' by TypeShop Collection, and 'Herokid' by W Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed oblique sans with heavy, uniform strokes and compact counters. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and terminals a squared-off softness rather than fully circular forms. The construction stays largely monoline, with crisp edges, short crossbars, and minimal detailing; joins are sturdy and the overall rhythm is vertical and tightly packed. Uppercase and figures read tall and poster-like, while the lowercase keeps a pragmatic, straightforward structure with a moderate x-height and narrow apertures.
Best suited for high-impact display settings such as headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short signage phrases where a compact footprint and strong presence are priorities, but its dense counters favor larger sizes over extended small-text reading.
The slanted, compressed silhouettes and dense color create a sense of speed and pressure, suggesting headlines that need to hit fast. Its blocky softness adds an industrial, utilitarian tone—more athletic and mechanical than elegant—while still feeling contemporary and controlled.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum visual force in minimal horizontal space, combining a forward-leaning stance with rounded-rectangle construction for a modern, industrial display voice.
Spacing appears designed to stack tightly, producing a strong texture in long lines. The squared curves and narrow internal spaces make the darkest letters (like M, N, W) especially compact, which amplifies impact at large sizes and increases density at smaller sizes.
