Sans Superellipse Ukrim 3 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Neumatic Compressed' by Arkitype, 'Procerus' by Artegra, and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, high-impact sans with tall proportions and strongly condensed letterforms. Strokes are consistently heavy and largely monolinear, with rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) counters and softened corners that keep the shapes from feeling sharp despite the dense weight. Curves are simplified into vertical ovals and squared-off bowls, while joins and terminals favor straight, vertical cuts for a rigid rhythm. The lowercase is built to match the uppercase’s solidity, with narrow apertures and short, sturdy extenders that maintain a uniform, column-like texture in text.
Best suited to short, high-visibility settings such as headlines, posters, signage, and packaging where density and impact are desirable. It can also work for logos or wordmarks that need a compact footprint and a strong vertical presence, especially in all-caps or tightly set display lines.
The overall tone is assertive and industrial, with a no-nonsense, sign-painting energy. Its compressed geometry reads as urgent and space-efficient, projecting strength and control rather than warmth or delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using simplified superelliptical forms and heavy, uniform strokes to keep letter shapes legible while maintaining a bold, industrial texture.
Spacing appears tight and the internal counters are relatively small for the stroke mass, producing a dark, continuous color in lines of text. Numerals follow the same condensed, blocky construction, supporting consistent emphasis in mixed alphanumeric settings.
