Sans Superellipse Gybel 1 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Bank Gothic' by GroupType, 'Block Capitals' by K-Type, and 'Purista' by Suitcase Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with a distinctly squared construction softened by large rounded corners. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls and counters, while joins and terminals are mostly flat and clean, producing a compact, blocky silhouette. The uppercase is broad-shouldered and stable, with rectangular interior spaces (notably in O, D, P, R) and consistent corner radii across the set. Lowercase forms follow the same squared-round logic with sturdy verticals and simplified details, keeping the texture dense and uniform in text.
Best suited for high-impact display typography such as headlines, posters, and bold branding systems where a compact, squared-round voice helps text feel strong and modern. It can also work well for sports and fitness identities, product packaging, and interface labels where a sturdy, geometric look supports quick recognition.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, with a utilitarian, engineered feel. Its squared rounding reads sporty and tech-forward—friendly enough to feel modern, yet tough enough to suggest performance and durability.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a modular, rounded-rectangle geometry, balancing blunt industrial shapes with softened corners for approachability. Consistent radii and simplified forms suggest an aim for a cohesive, system-ready display style rather than delicate text nuance.
Round characters like O and 0 are close in structure, both built from rounded rectangles; numerals follow the same modular geometry, giving dashboards and UI readouts a consistent, system-like voice. The rhythm in sample text is tight and emphatic, with large interior corners and minimal modulation helping maintain clarity at display sizes.
