Sans Superellipse Gygob 6 is a bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Nicomedia' by Artegra, 'Plasma' by Corradine Fonts, 'Olney' by Philatype, 'RBNo3.1' by René Bieder, 'Celdum' by The Northern Block, and 'Obvia Wide' by Typefolio (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse forms. Corners are broadly radiused and terminals are mostly straight-cut, producing a sturdy, blocky silhouette with smooth outer curvature. Counters tend to be squarish with softened corners, and the overall rhythm is compact and dense with minimal stroke modulation. Diagonals (e.g., in K, V, W, X) are clean and angular, while round letters (O, Q, 0, 8, 9) read as squared rounds, keeping the system consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where its compact, squared-round shapes can read clearly: headlines, large UI titles, product branding, logotypes, and packaging. It can also work for signage and labels where a bold, contemporary voice is needed, while extended body text may feel dense due to its weight and tight interior space.
The overall tone feels modern and engineered—friendly from the rounded corners, but assertive due to the dense weight and firm geometry. It suggests contemporary tech, mobility, and performance aesthetics rather than editorial warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangular construction into a cohesive alphabet optimized for strong, high-impact messaging. It prioritizes consistent geometry, smooth corners, and compact counters to deliver a controlled, contemporary presence across letters and figures.
The lowercase uses simple, constructed shapes with short, squared shoulders and rounded bowls; the single-storey forms and squared counters emphasize a utilitarian, display-forward character. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangular logic, with a clear, modular presence suited to big sizes.
