Sans Superellipse Olrej 4 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Fairweather' by Dharma Type, 'Cairoli Now' by Italiantype, 'Final Edition JNL' and 'Sheldrake JNL' by Jeff Levine, and 'Industrial Gothic' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, producing a compact, ink-trap-free silhouette that stays clean at large sizes. Counters are tight and mostly rectangular, and terminals tend to finish flat with slight rounding, giving the letters a sturdy, stamped look. The lowercase is tall with short extenders, and the overall rhythm is dense, making word shapes feel solid and uninterrupted.
Best suited to headlines, posters, signage, packaging, and logo work where a compact footprint and strong presence are useful. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when space is constrained, though long passages may feel dense due to the tight counters and condensed width.
The tone is bold and utilitarian with a touch of retro charm—confident, punchy, and slightly playful due to the rounded geometry. It reads as attention-forward rather than subtle, suggesting signage and display contexts where impact matters.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectangle forms to balance toughness with approachability. Its consistent stroke weight and compact spacing suggest a practical display face meant to stay clear and recognizable at a distance.
The condensed proportions and tight apertures create strong vertical emphasis and high color on the page. Numerals match the same squared-off, rounded geometry, keeping a cohesive voice across letters and figures.
