Sans Superellipse Idnas 3 is a very bold, narrow, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Bhelt' by Fateh.Lab, 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype, 'Otoiwo Grotesk' by Pepper Type, and 'Herokid' by W Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with superelliptical construction: counters and curves read as rounded rectangles, and terminals are mostly flat with softened corners rather than sharp points. The design keeps strokes broad and steady, with minimal modulation and tight internal spaces that emphasize mass and punch. Proportions are condensed, with tall, upright silhouettes and a rhythmic, poster-like texture; bowls and apertures tend to be small, while verticals dominate and curves stay squared-off. Numerals match the same sturdy geometry, producing dense, uniform blocks of black in text.
Best suited to large sizes where its condensed, heavy forms can deliver quick impact—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, sports and event graphics, and bold branding moments. It can also work for short signage phrases or UI labels when strong emphasis is needed, but dense paragraph settings may feel visually tight.
The font projects strength and urgency, with a no-nonsense tone that feels modern and utilitarian. Its compact width and heavy color suggest confidence and immediacy, leaning toward sporty, headline-driven communication rather than quiet reading.
Likely designed to deliver maximum emphasis in limited horizontal space while maintaining a friendly, modern softness through rounded-rectangle curves. The intent appears focused on bold display typography that stays clean and geometric, trading openness for punch and compactness.
In longer lines the tight counters and high ink coverage can make words feel compact and forceful, especially around letters with enclosed bowls. The overall character stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a cohesive, display-oriented voice.
