Sans Superellipse Orliz 3 is a bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Kaligane' by ArimaType, 'Bebas Neue Pro' by Dharma Type, 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type, and 'Kurdis' by That That Creative (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to end in flat cuts that reinforce a mechanical, engineered feel. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are controlled, keeping the silhouette dense and efficient. The lowercase shows straightforward, single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a compact rhythm, while numerals follow the same blocky, squared-round logic for consistent texture in text and display.
Well suited for headlines, posters, and prominent UI or product labeling where a compact width and strong presence help conserve space while maintaining impact. It can also work for wayfinding and packaging systems that benefit from consistent, sturdy letterforms and clear silhouettes at medium to large sizes.
The tone is direct and workmanlike, projecting confidence and practicality rather than elegance. Its compressed, stout shapes read as modern and functional, with an industrial flavor that suits signage and system-like communication.
The likely intention is to deliver a space-saving, high-impact sans built from rounded-rectangular geometry, balancing a technical, utilitarian voice with enough curvature to remain approachable in branding and display contexts.
The design’s superellipse-like rounding softens the otherwise rectilinear geometry, preventing the face from feeling overly harsh at larger sizes. In running text the tight counters and dense color create a strong, poster-like presence, favoring short bursts of copy over long passages.
