Sans Superellipse Okbam 1 is a bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'FF Good' and 'FF Good Headline' by FontFont, 'Akhand Kannada' by Indian Type Foundry, and 'Gratique' by Lemon Studio Type (names referenced only for comparison).
Keywords: headlines, posters, branding, signage, packaging, industrial, utilitarian, confident, sporty, contemporary, space saving, strong legibility, modern utility, geometric warmth, display impact, compact, rounded, squared, blocky, sturdy.
A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves tend to resolve into softened corners rather than true circles, giving counters and bowls a squarish, superellipse feel. Strokes are uniform with minimal modulation, terminals are blunt and clean, and joins stay sturdy, producing dense, high-impact word shapes. The lowercase is built for legibility with a large x-height, short ascenders, and straightforward, no-nonsense forms; the numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry for a cohesive texture.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks where a dense, sturdy texture is desirable—posters, packaging, labels, wayfinding, and contemporary branding. It can also work for UI and digital callouts when a compact, assertive sans is needed, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is direct and workmanlike, with a modern, engineered friendliness from the softened corners. It feels confident and practical rather than delicate, leaning toward a sporty, signage-ready voice that stays readable and assertive.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, space-efficient sans that maintains strong readability while projecting a solid, engineered character. Its rounded-rectangle skeleton suggests a goal of blending geometric order with approachable softness for high-impact display typography.
The design keeps a consistent rounding radius across letters, which helps text look uniform and “machined.” Internal spaces are relatively tight at display sizes, reinforcing the compact, solid rhythm in paragraphs and headlines.
