Sans Superellipse Gidij 4 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Midfield' by Kreuk Type Foundry, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, 'Huberica' by The Native Saint Club, and 'Venus Envy' by TypeArt Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

This is a heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently thick strokes. Corners are broadly radiused while terminals tend to be flat, producing a squared, superellipse silhouette across both rounds and straights. Counters are compact and often rectangular (notably in B, D, O, P), and apertures are relatively tight, giving a dense, poster-like texture. Lowercase forms are simplified and sturdy, with single-storey a and g, a short-armed t, and a minimal r; overall spacing reads even but intentionally chunky due to the large stroke-to-counter ratio.
Best suited to display settings where impact matters: headlines, titles, branding marks, packaging, and bold interface or game/tech-themed graphics. It holds up well at medium-to-large sizes where the tight counters and squared rounds read as a deliberate style choice, and it can create a strong rhythmic texture in short blocks of text.
The font projects a bold, retro-futurist tone with a slightly arcade/industrial flavor. Its rounded block forms feel friendly rather than sharp, while the dense counters and squared geometry keep it confident and mechanical. The result is energetic and attention-grabbing, with a playful edge.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern, geometric display voice built from rounded rectangles—combining the softness of rounded corners with the authority of heavy, squared forms. Its simplified lowercase and compact counters suggest an emphasis on bold legibility and distinctive personality in branding and titling contexts.
Several glyphs lean toward stylized, sign-lettering shapes (e.g., the angular, notched joins in K and k, and the rectangular interior cutouts). Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, with especially compact bowls in 8 and 9 and a simplified 1 and 7 that reinforce the utilitarian, display-forward feel.
