Sans Superellipse Ibmeh 4 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'ATF Railroad Gothic' by ATF Collection, 'Sztos' by Machalski, 'PG Grotesque' by Paulo Goode, and 'Amfibia' by ROHH (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-oriented sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Curves are broad and superelliptical, counters are relatively small, and terminals are blunt, creating a dense, ink-trappy texture in text. The x-height reads high and the lowercase is compact and muscular, while caps are tall with simple, geometric joins. Overall rhythm is punchy and even, with minimal modulation and a consistent, squared-off silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, large display settings, and short emphatic copy where its dense weight and rounded-block shapes can read cleanly. It fits bold branding systems, packaging, signage, and merchandise/athletics-style graphics that benefit from a sturdy, high-impact voice.
The tone is assertive and attention-getting, with a friendly edge from the rounded geometry. It feels utilitarian and workmanlike—more poster and packaging than refined editorial—while still coming across approachable rather than harsh.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a contemporary geometric foundation, using rounded-rectangle curves to balance strength and approachability. The intent appears to be a versatile display workhorse that stays simple, legible, and visually consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Round letters like O/Q and numerals like 0/8/9 show a distinctly squarish, superellipse bowl. The forms favor stability over finesse, and the dense internal space suggests it performs best when given adequate size or tracking in longer lines.
