Sans Superellipse Jeko 2 is a very bold, narrow, medium contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Grotesca Negra' by MAC Rhino Fonts, 'Kuunari' and 'Kuunari Rounded' by Melvastype, and 'EastBroadway' by Tipos Pereira (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with tightly set proportions and a squared, rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with subtly softened corners and mostly flat terminals, creating a dense, stable texture. Counters are small and often rectangular or slot-like, and the curves in letters like O/C/G read as squarish superellipse forms rather than true circles. The lowercase follows the same blocky logic with sturdy stems and short, efficient joins, producing a uniform, high-impact rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited to large-scale applications where impact matters: headlines, posters, packaging fronts, labels, signage, and brand marks. It also fits sports or event graphics where condensed, powerful letterforms help maximize presence in limited horizontal space.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor. Its compressed, high-mass silhouettes feel confident and attention-grabbing, evoking signage, athletic branding, and bold headline typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact width, using rounded-rect geometry and simplified terminals to create a sturdy, industrial display voice that remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
The heavy weight and narrow fit create strong vertical emphasis and a dark typographic color; at smaller sizes the tight counters and dense interior spaces may reduce clarity. Numerals match the same squared, poster-like construction, supporting consistent display setting alongside caps and lowercase.
