Sans Superellipse Kahy 6 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, italic, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Digital Sans Now' by Elsner+Flake, 'Gunar' by The Northern Block, and 'Board of Directors' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, oblique sans with chunky strokes and rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction throughout. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a squared, machined feel; apertures are relatively tight and internal spaces stay compact at this weight. The rhythm is dynamic and forward-leaning, with broad, stable proportions and smooth, consistent stroke joins; several glyphs show small notches/cut-ins at joins that read like subtle ink-trap or stencil-like relief details. Numerals and capitals maintain the same rounded-rect geometry, producing a unified, blocky texture in lines of text.
Best suited to display use where impact and speed are desired: sports and esports identities, event posters, product packaging, cinematic titles, and UI/overlay graphics. It also performs well for numbers, badges, and short labels where a compact, high-energy typographic voice is beneficial.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, evoking motorsport graphics, athletic branding, and sci‑fi interfaces. Its oblique slant and squared-round shapes communicate momentum and engineered precision more than softness or tradition.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, performance-oriented look by combining very heavy strokes with superelliptical geometry and a forward-leaning stance. The small relief cuts and compact counters suggest an aim for robustness in demanding, high-contrast applications such as branding and on-screen graphics.
At text sizes the dense counters and tight apertures create a dark, compact color, while the softened corners prevent the face from feeling sharp or brittle. Short crossbars and simplified interior shapes keep forms bold and legible in display settings, especially in all-caps and numeric-heavy contexts.
