Sans Superellipse Pomol 3 is a very bold, very narrow, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Gala' by Canada Type, 'Expanse Nuvo' by Designova, 'Clinch' and 'Loftie' by Gerald Gallo, and 'Nata' by MysticalType (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, heavy sans with tall proportions and a compact rhythm. Strokes are largely uniform, with rounded-rectangle construction visible in bowls and counters, producing soft corners and a squared-off curvature rather than true circles. Terminals are predominantly flat and blunt, and many glyphs emphasize strong vertical stems with minimal horizontal projection. Counters are tight and vertically oriented, and joins in forms like M, N, W, and V create pointed inner angles that sharpen the overall silhouette despite the rounded outer geometry.
Best suited to short-to-medium headline settings where strong impact and narrow set width are advantages—posters, packaging panels, signage, and bold brand wordmarks. It can also work for labels, pull quotes, and UI banners where a compact, high-impact sans is needed, though longer text will quickly become visually dense.
The font reads bold, direct, and utilitarian, with a contemporary industrial edge. Its tall, compressed forms give it an urgent, poster-driven tone, while the rounded-rect geometry keeps it from feeling harsh, adding a sleek, engineered friendliness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using a consistent, engineered geometry based on rounded rectangles. The emphasis on verticality, tight counters, and blunt terminals suggests a display-oriented voice optimized for clarity at larger sizes and strong graphic presence.
In the samples, the condensed width and heavy weight create dense word shapes and strong color on the page, especially in mixed-case lines. Numerals follow the same narrow, blocky logic, maintaining consistent visual weight and a sturdy, sign-like presence.
