Sans Superellipse Jirub 6 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Manufaktur' by Great Scott, 'Neue Northwest' by Kaligra.co, 'Midfield' by Kreuk Type Foundry, 'NT Gagarin' by Novo Typo, and 'Block' by Stefan Stoychev (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-constructed sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are uniformly thick with squared terminals softened by generous corner rounding, creating a superellipse feel across bowls and counters. Apertures tend to be tight and counters are often rectangular, giving letters a compact, stamp-like density. Diagonals appear in V/W/X/Y with chunky joins, while curves (O/Q/C/G) resolve into squared-off, rounded forms rather than true circles, producing a consistent, modular rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, product packaging, and display typography for tech or gaming contexts. It can also work for UI labels or signage where a bold, modular look is desired, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian with a distinct retro-digital flavor. Its chunky, softened blocks feel simultaneously mechanical and friendly, suggesting arcade graphics, sci-fi interfaces, and industrial labeling rather than understated editorial typography.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle modular forms into an attention-grabbing display sans. By keeping stroke weight consistent and shaping letters with squared curves and compact counters, it emphasizes bold silhouettes and a cohesive, system-like aesthetic.
Distinctive details include square dots on i/j, a single-storey a and g, and numerals that read like rounded LED/terminal-inspired blocks. The compressed inner spaces and strong silhouettes favor impact and recognition at larger sizes, while the tight apertures can reduce clarity in smaller text settings.
