Sans Superellipse Hakud 3 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Digital Sans Now' by Elsner+Flake, 'Midsole' by Grype, 'Digital TS' by TypeShop Collection, and 'Kimberley' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with consistently thick, largely monoline strokes. Corners are broadly radiused and terminals are mostly squared-off, creating a compact, engineered silhouette. Curves are squarish rather than circular, with counters that read as soft-edged rectangles; bowls and rounds (O, Q, 0, 8) feel boxy and controlled. Diagonals and joins (A, K, V, W, X) are crisp and angular, while apertures and notches (notably in S, G, and some lowercase forms) add a slightly cut-in, modular rhythm. Numerals follow the same squared-rounded logic, giving a unified, signage-friendly texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short display copy where its squared-rounded geometry can be appreciated. It also fits UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding-style applications that benefit from a compact, high-impact sans with clear, modular forms.
The overall tone is modern and machine-made, combining friendliness from the rounded corners with a tough, utilitarian presence. It suggests technology interfaces, sci‑fi labeling, and industrial branding—confident and functional rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The font appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric look rooted in rounded-rectangle construction, prioritizing solidity and a technical feel while staying approachable through softened corners and consistent stroke weight.
Uppercase shapes read particularly sturdy and blocklike, while the lowercase retains the same geometric construction for a consistent voice across cases. The design’s squarish counters and tight internal shapes emphasize a strong, high-contrast-on-background appearance, especially at larger sizes.
