Sans Superellipse Byruh 3 is a bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Coign' by Colophon Foundry, 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype, and 'TT Bluescreens' by TypeType (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and a strong vertical rhythm. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) shapes, giving bowls and counters a squared-yet-soft geometry rather than purely circular forms. Strokes are uniform with crisp terminals, and many joins feel engineered and compact, producing dense word shapes with narrow apertures and counters. The overall texture is dark and continuous, especially in text where the compressed widths and close internal spaces emphasize verticals.
Best suited to display applications where tight, tall letterforms create impact—posters, headlines, logotypes, and packaging fronts. It can also work for editorial display or pull quotes when ample size and spacing are available to maintain clarity in the compact counters.
The font conveys a contemporary, display-forward attitude—confident, compressed, and slightly industrial. Its squared-rounded curves add a sleek, urban flavor that reads as modern and purposeful rather than friendly or calligraphic. The narrow build and strong rhythm lend a dramatic, attention-grabbing tone suited to bold messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence in minimal horizontal space, combining a rigid vertical structure with softened, superellipse-based curves. It aims for a distinctive, contemporary display voice that stays clean and utilitarian while remaining recognizable at a glance.
Round letters like O/Q and C/G show a consistent rounded-rectangle construction, and the figures follow the same condensed, vertical logic for cohesive titling. The compact counters and narrow apertures suggest it will look most comfortable at larger sizes, where interior shapes have room to breathe.
