Sans Superellipse Myvu 3 is a very bold, very narrow, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'XXII DONT MESS WITH VIKINGS' by Doubletwo Studios, 'Asimov Sans' by Fonthead Design, 'Hubba' by Green Type, 'Odradeck' by Harvester Type, 'Recumba' by Pixesia Studio, and 'Robson' by TypeUnion (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, tightly set sans with tall, compressed proportions and heavy, even strokes. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: bowls and counters read as superelliptical shapes with softened corners rather than true circles, giving the forms a machined, blocky regularity. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, and the joins stay crisp, producing a strong vertical rhythm and sturdy word shapes. Counters are relatively small but consistently open for the style, with simple, no-nonsense constructions across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos/wordmarks, and bold labels where a compact footprint and high visual impact are needed. It can also work for signage or packaging systems that benefit from a consistent, industrial texture, especially when set with extra letterspacing or at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels industrial and retro, like stamped signage or bold display lettering from mid‑century packaging. Its strict geometry and compressed stance make it feel efficient and forceful, projecting confidence and impact rather than delicacy.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize presence in a narrow width while maintaining a consistent, rounded-rect geometry. The goal seems to be a strong, space-efficient display face with a controlled, manufactured feel and clear, repeatable shapes for bold typographic statements.
The design leans on straight-sided strokes and softened corners to maintain a uniform, engineered look, while distinctive shapes (notably the angular diagonals and squared bowls) help keep characters from collapsing into one another at display sizes. It reads most comfortably with generous tracking or in short bursts where its dense texture can breathe.
