Sans Superellipse Gikoj 5 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Copperplate New' by Caron twice, 'Carnac' and 'Carnas' by Hoftype, and 'Moderna Condensed' by Los Andes (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like shapes, with consistently softened corners and even stroke weight throughout. Curves are broad and controlled, counters tend toward squarish rounds, and terminals finish bluntly rather than tapering. The overall texture is dense and graphic, with compact interior spaces and a steady baseline rhythm that favors clarity at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, brand marks, packaging, and display typography where bold, compact shapes can carry visual weight. It can also work for short UI labels or wayfinding-style signage when you want a friendly, geometric voice, though the tight counters suggest avoiding very small sizes for long passages.
The tone is confident and upbeat, pairing a robust, industrial feel with approachable rounded forms. It reads as modern and slightly retro-tech, giving text a punchy, poster-like presence without feeling sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a clean, geometric construction—combining rounded-corner friendliness with a solid, utilitarian backbone for contemporary display and identity work.
Letterforms show a pronounced rectangular logic (notably in rounded bowls and squared-off counters), which creates strong silhouette recognition in headlines. Numerals match the same chunky, rounded geometry, producing a cohesive, signage-ready set.
