Sans Superellipse Horol 2 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Robofan' by César Puertas, 'Futo Sans' by HB Font, 'RBNo3.1' by René Bieder, and 'Celdum' and 'Gunar' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, squarish sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse geometry. Strokes are monolinear with large, consistent radiused corners and broadly flattened curves, producing boxy counters and wide bowls (notably in O/Q/0/8). Apertures are generally tight and joins are chunky, with terminals that end in clean, straight cuts; diagonals are sturdy and simplified, and the overall rhythm feels compact and mechanically even across the set.
Best suited to display settings where bold silhouettes matter: headlines, posters, product branding, packaging, and sports or tech-themed graphics. It can work for short UI labels or navigation elements when set with generous spacing, but its tight apertures and dense texture favor larger sizes and concise copy.
The tone is forceful and contemporary, with a utilitarian, tech-forward character. Its softened corners keep the voice friendly enough for consumer contexts, but the overall mass and squared forms read more industrial than playful.
Likely intended as a modern display sans that merges geometric squareness with softened corners for a strong, contemporary look. The consistent rounded-rectangle construction suggests a focus on punchy, high-impact typography that remains clean and controlled.
The design leans on rectangular countershapes and closed forms, which creates strong silhouette impact but can reduce openness in smaller sizes. Numerals and capitals appear especially robust and signage-like, while the lowercase maintains the same squared, rounded construction for a consistent texture in text.
