Sans Superellipse Aggij 5 is a bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Ando' and 'Ando Round' by JCFonts, 'Linotype Freytag' by Linotype, 'Aureola' by OneSevenPointFive, and 'Core Mellow' by S-Core (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed sans with monoline strokes and strongly rounded, squarish curves that read as superellipse-like forms. The design is built around tall, narrow proportions with tight counters, creating a compact rhythm in words and a high vertical emphasis. Terminals are consistently rounded, corners are softened, and curves transition smoothly into straight stems, giving the letters a clean, engineered feel. In text settings the spacing and compressed width produce dense texture, while the simple stroke structure keeps the overall color even.
Best suited to headlines and short lines where its condensed build can save space while staying bold and graphic. It fits well in posters, packaging, and branding systems that want an industrial or retro-leaning condensed sans. It can also work for signage and labels where a tight, vertically oriented texture is desirable.
The overall tone feels confident and graphic, with a slightly retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of condensed signage and utilitarian labeling. Its rounded-rectangle geometry adds friendliness to what would otherwise be a strict, compressed silhouette, resulting in a modern display voice that remains approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, high-impact condensed sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangle construction. Its consistent monoline drawing and softened corners suggest a goal of combining utilitarian clarity with a recognizable display personality.
Round characters like O/Q and figures share the same rounded-rectangle construction, and the numerals match the letterforms in height and compression for consistent headline styling. The compact counters and narrow apertures suggest it will look strongest at larger sizes where inner shapes stay clear.
