Sans Superellipse Agdiz 9 is a regular weight, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Akzidenz-Grotesk' and 'Akzidenz-Grotesk W1G' by Berthold and 'Bebas Neue Pro' by Dharma Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, monoline sans with softly squared curves and rounded-rectangle counters. Strokes are even and steady, with minimal modulation and mostly flat terminals, giving the outlines a cut-from-solid, engineered feel. Bowls and apertures tend toward superelliptical geometry rather than perfect circles, and the overall rhythm is tight and efficient. Lowercase forms are straightforward and compact, with simple shoulders and restrained joins; figures follow the same narrow, upright logic for a consistent texture in mixed text.
Well-suited to space-conscious applications such as UI labels, navigation, and informational graphics where a compact footprint helps. It can also work effectively in posters and packaging that need a modern, orderly voice, especially when short headlines or punchy subheads benefit from tight, consistent texture.
The tone is modern and pragmatic, balancing a technical, structured skeleton with softened corners that keep it approachable. Its compact proportions and controlled shapes read as organized and no-nonsense, while the rounded geometry adds a mild friendliness rather than a stark industrial edge.
The design appears intended to provide a compact, highly legible sans with a distinctive superelliptical geometry—combining efficient proportions for density with softened corners to avoid harshness in continuous reading or interface contexts.
The narrow set width creates a dense gray value that stays even across lines, and the rounded-square curves give counters a distinctive, slightly “squircle” character. In the sample text, spacing and proportions produce a tidy, efficient line without calling attention to stylistic flourishes.
