Sans Superellipse Ukmev 1 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Exabyte' by Pepper Type, 'SbB Powertrain' by Sketchbook B, and 'Hydrargyrum' by Type Minds (names referenced only for comparison).

A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like forms, with consistent heavy strokes and generous corner radii. Counters tend to be squarish and enclosed, giving many letters a compact, engineered silhouette. Curves are minimized in favor of straight segments with softened corners, while terminals are mostly blunt and horizontal/vertical. Spacing and sidebearings feel on the tight-to-moderate side, supporting dense setting without losing the distinctive boxy rhythm.
Best suited to display sizes where its squared counters and rounded-rectangle construction are clearly visible—headlines, posters, logotypes, and bold brand systems. It also works well for product packaging, tech-themed graphics, sports or esports identity, and interface-like callouts where a sturdy, industrial rhythm is desirable.
The overall tone is technical and futuristic with a clear retro-digital edge. Its chunky, modular shapes read as robust and utilitarian, suggesting machinery, interfaces, and engineered products rather than editorial refinement. The rounded corners keep it approachable while maintaining a strong, assertive presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive geometric voice built from softened rectangular geometry—prioritizing impact, clarity, and a cohesive modular system. It aims to evoke contemporary tech and retro-futurist signage while keeping shapes friendly through large radii and simplified detail.
Distinctive angular construction shows up in letters like S and Z, while rounded rectangles dominate bowls and counters (O, D, P, R). The lowercase mixes single-story forms (a, g) with squared curves, and the numerals share the same compact, device-like geometry, helping headings and UI-style labels feel visually unified.
