Sans Superellipse Tamot 6 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Bebas Neue Pro' by Dharma Type, 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype, and 'Heading Now' and 'Sugo Pro' by Zetafonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with tightly proportioned letterforms and rounded-rectangle curves. Strokes are thick and even, with small interior counters that stay open but create a dense, poster-like texture. Curves and joins tend toward squared geometry softened by rounded corners, producing a superelliptic feel in bowls and arches. Terminals are mostly blunt and horizontal/vertical, while the lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (notably a and g) and tall, straight-sided stems; the overall rhythm reads compressed and strongly vertical.
Best suited for short, high-impact copy such as headlines, titles, labels, and display typography where compact width is an advantage. It also fits branding systems that need a sturdy, industrial sans for logos, packaging callouts, and wayfinding-style signage.
The tone is assertive and workmanlike, with an industrial directness that feels both contemporary and slightly retro. Its condensed massing gives it a bold, no-nonsense voice suited to attention-first messaging rather than subtlety.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a constrained width, using rounded-rectangle geometry and uniform stroke weight to keep forms consistent and highly legible at display sizes.
In text, the weight and narrow proportions create strong word-shapes and high impact, but the dense counters suggest it will perform best with generous tracking and line spacing. Numerals follow the same compact, blocky logic, matching the uppercase well for signage-like settings.
