Sans Superellipse Gubat 9 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Orgon Plan' by Hoftype, 'Bega' by Indian Type Foundry, and 'Gloriola' by Suitcase Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Curves are broad and even, counters are relatively open for the weight, and joins feel clean and engineered rather than calligraphic. Uppercase forms are compact and blocky, while lowercase maintains simple, single-storey shapes (notably the a and g) that emphasize clarity and a contemporary, constructed feel. Numerals are robust and highly legible, with generous interior space in figures like 8 and a stable, grounded stance overall.
Best suited to display roles where weight and simplified geometry help it read quickly: headlines, posters, brand wordmarks, packaging, and short UI/marketing statements. In paragraphs, it works most convincingly at larger sizes where the rounded construction and wide strokes can maintain comfortable counters and letter differentiation.
The overall tone is bold and approachable: strong enough for attention-grabbing headlines, but softened by rounded geometry that reads friendly rather than aggressive. It suggests a contemporary, product-forward voice—confident, upbeat, and slightly playful.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, contemporary geometry—pairing strong, block-like letterforms with rounded corners to keep the texture approachable. It aims for straightforward readability and a cohesive, product-design aesthetic suitable for modern branding.
Stroke endings tend to be squared-off with rounding, reinforcing a “soft block” silhouette. Several letters show simplified, geometric decisions (e.g., a straightforward G with an internal bar, a compact S, and a sturdy t), creating a consistent, logo-ready rhythm when set in text.
