Sans Superellipse Ukmid 4 is a very bold, very narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Angulosa M.8' by Ingo, 'TD Pobeda' by Tektov Dmitry Type, and 'Optoisolator' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, block-built sans with tall, tightly packed proportions and rounded-rectangle curves. Strokes stay largely even in weight, with crisp orthogonal turns softened by radiused corners and occasional small ink-trap–like notches where joins tighten. Counters are narrow and often rectangular, creating a high-density texture and strong vertical rhythm; several forms use stylized cut-ins and squared terminals that keep the silhouette rigid and engineered. Numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, modular structure that reads cleanly at display sizes.
This design is well suited to headlines, posters, and logo wordmarks where its compressed, high-impact shapes can dominate the page. It also works for packaging, product labels, and sports or event branding that benefit from an engineered, sign-like presence, and for UI or display titling when a techno-industrial voice is desired.
The overall tone feels industrial and techno, with a distinct retro-futurist flavor. Its compressed geometry and stencil-like cut details project efficiency, control, and a slightly militaristic signage energy, making text look purposeful and mechanical rather than friendly or casual.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using a modular, rounded-rect geometry to stay consistent across the set. The small cut-ins and tightened joins suggest an aim for sharper differentiation and a purposeful, manufactured look, optimized for bold display rather than extended body reading.
The font’s personality comes from the tension between hard rectangular construction and softened corner radii, which keeps it from looking purely brutalist. In paragraphs the dense spacing and narrow apertures build a strong, uniform color, so it tends to read best when given generous tracking or used at larger sizes.
