Sans Superellipse Gykek 2 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Nicomedia' by Artegra, 'Absalon' by Michael Nordstrom Kjaer, 'Olney' by Philatype, and 'Obvia Expanded' by Typefolio (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with squared-round (superelliptical) construction throughout. Strokes are uniform and dense, with rounded corners and flattened curves that give counters a rectangular feel. The lowercase shows a high x-height with short extenders, and the overall rhythm is broad and steady, with generous internal spacing that keeps the bold forms legible. Numerals and capitals share the same sturdy, modular logic, producing a consistent, built-from-blocks silhouette.
Best suited to display use: headlines, brand marks and wordmarks, posters, product packaging, and environmental or wayfinding signage where a strong, compact presence is needed. Its dense weight and open counters also make it a solid option for short UI labels and callouts when set with adequate spacing.
The tone is assertive and contemporary, combining a utilitarian, engineered feel with softened corners that keep it approachable. It reads as tech-forward and confident, suited to bold messaging without becoming sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive, geometric system—favoring superelliptical curves, uniform stroke weight, and a high x-height to maintain clarity while projecting a bold, contemporary voice.
Round letters like O and Q lean toward rounded rectangles rather than true circles, reinforcing a systematic, grid-like aesthetic. Diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are thick and stable, helping the design hold together at large sizes and in high-impact settings.
