Sans Superellipse Pibat 6 is a bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'ATF Alternate Gothic' by ATF Collection, 'Miura' by DSType, 'Korolev' by Device, and 'Fairweather' by Dharma Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A tall, tightly condensed sans with heavy, monoline strokes and compact internal counters. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse logic, producing squared-off bowls and softly blunted terminals rather than fully circular forms. The rhythm is vertical and uniform, with straight stems, minimal modulation, and short crossbars that keep letters narrow while remaining sturdy. Lowercase forms are similarly condensed, with a double-storey-style structure in several letters and simplified apertures that prioritize density over openness; numerals follow the same compact, blocky construction.
Best suited to display settings where space is limited but impact is needed—headlines, posters, packaging fronts, mastheads, and short signage phrases. It can also work for labels, interfaces, and data callouts when used at sufficiently large sizes and with generous tracking to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is direct and utilitarian, with a slightly retro, poster-like punch. Its compressed geometry reads as efficient and engineered, giving it an industrial, no-nonsense voice that feels suited to bold statements and tight spaces.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a narrow measure, using superellipse-based rounding to stay friendly and consistent while remaining dense and high-impact. It emphasizes economy of width and a strong vertical cadence for modern display typography.
Because the counters are small and the strokes are heavy, the design tends to darken quickly in longer lines, especially at smaller sizes. The squared-round curvature keeps the look consistent across rounds like C/O/S and bowls in B/P/R, reinforcing a cohesive, mechanical texture.
