Sans Superellipse Ikmep 2 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Ciston' by Aqeela Studio, 'Neue Haas Unica' and 'Neue Haas Unica Paneuropean' by Linotype, and 'Amsi Grotesk' by Stawix (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-like sans with softened, superellipse-style curves and broadly rounded corners. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and many joins and terminals resolve into squared-off ends that keep the forms sturdy rather than bubbly. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) lean toward rounded-rectangle geometry, while straight-sided letters (E, F, H, N) feel broad and stable. Lowercase is compact with a single-storey a and g, short-to-minimal extenders, and dense counters that stay open enough for display sizes. Numerals are similarly weighty and wide, with simplified, strongly geometric silhouettes.
Best suited to large-scale typography such as headlines, posters, and bold branding where its broad, rounded-square construction can read clearly and project strength. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from a compact, high-impact word shape and a friendly, modern-industrial feel.
The tone is assertive and energetic, balancing toughness with approachability thanks to the rounded-square shaping. It reads as contemporary-industrial with a hint of retro signage and athletic branding, giving headlines a confident, no-nonsense presence without feeling sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a geometric, rounded-rectangle skeleton—prioritizing strong silhouettes, quick recognition, and an approachable ruggedness for display-forward applications.
Spacing appears generous for a display cut, helping the large mass of each glyph avoid clogging in word shapes. The overall rhythm is driven by squarish rounds and consistent corner radii, producing a uniform, logo-friendly texture across both uppercase and lowercase.
