Sans Superellipse Hurap 7 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Ciutadella' and 'Geogrotesque Sharp' by Emtype Foundry and 'Sharp Grotesk Latin', 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean', and 'Sharp Grotesk Thai' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, compact sans with softly squared curves and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and counters are tight but clean, creating dense, high-impact letterforms. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, with consistent corner rounding that keeps the texture smooth despite the weight. Uppercase shapes are broad and stable, while lowercase forms stay simple and robust; bowls and shoulders tend toward squarish geometry rather than true circles, reinforcing the superelliptical feel.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, branding marks, and packaging where bold, compact forms need to hold attention. It also works well for signage and UI labels at larger sizes where its blunt geometry and rounded corners read quickly and consistently.
The overall tone is confident and direct, with a friendly softness from the rounded corners. It reads as contemporary and practical—more about clarity and presence than elegance—making it feel energetic without becoming playful or whimsical.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence with a controlled, geometric voice—combining sturdy, square-like proportions with softened corners to stay approachable. It prioritizes solidity and legibility in display settings while maintaining a cohesive, modern rhythm across letters and numbers.
The numerals share the same compact, squared-round construction, and the overall rhythm forms a strong, even typographic “block” in text. The heavy weight favors short ascenders/descenders and tight internal space, which boosts impact but calls for comfortable tracking in longer settings.
