Sans Superellipse Imboj 1 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, italic, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Bunken Tech Sans Wide' by Buntype, 'Gltp Starion' by Glowtype, 'Fordek' by Isolatype, and 'Gemsbuck 01' by Studio Fat Cat (names referenced only for comparison).
Keywords: headlines, sports branding, esports, automotive, posters, sporty, fast, aggressive, modern, technical, impact, motion, headline, branding, display, blocky, dense, streamlined, squared-rounded, compact counters.
The letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse geometry, producing squared-off counters and smoothly radiused corners rather than pure circles. Strokes are heavy and uniform with minimal contrast, and the forward slant is consistent across both cases, reinforcing a continuous sense of motion. Proportions are extended horizontally, while apertures and counters remain relatively tight, creating dense, punchy word shapes. Terminals are largely blunt and streamlined, with clean joins and an industrial, engineered finish.
It suits headlines, logos, and branding where a dynamic, performance-oriented voice is needed—sports teams, esports, automotive/motorsport styling, athletic apparel, and tech-product marketing. It also works well for posters, cover art, packaging callouts, and UI hero banners where large sizes and tight spacing can amplify its compact, powerful rhythm. For longer reading, it’s best used sparingly as a display companion rather than a primary text face.
This font projects speed and impact, with a distinctly sporty, motorsport-adjacent energy. The slanted stance and compact, heavy silhouettes give it an assertive, performance-driven tone that feels modern and slightly aggressive. Overall, it reads as confident and promotional—built to grab attention fast.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that emphasizes motion and strength through a consistent forward slant, wide proportions, and heavy, uniform strokes. Its superellipse construction suggests an effort to feel contemporary and engineered, keeping shapes smooth and controlled while staying bold and attention-centric. The overall system prioritizes strong silhouettes and quick recognition in short bursts of text.
Uppercase forms maintain a consistent geometric logic with rounded-square bowls (notably in O/Q and B/D), while lowercase keeps the same slanted, compact construction for cohesive mixed-case setting. Numerals follow the same squared-rounded language, with horizontally emphasized shapes that match the font’s fast, muscular texture.
