Sans Superellipse Upja 1 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'FX Ambasans' by Differentialtype, 'Gemsbuck 01' by Studio Fat Cat, 'Hyperspace Race Capsule' by Swell Type, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) primitives. Corners are broadly radiused, terminals are mostly flat, and strokes maintain an even, monoline feel. The proportions are expansive and blocky, with large footprints and compact internal counters that stay open via softened inner corners. Letters like O/Q and numerals such as 0 and 8 read as squared bowls with smooth rounding, giving the set a consistent, engineered rhythm.
Best suited to large-format applications where its blocky geometry and rounded-square forms can read clearly: headlines, posters, identity marks, apparel, packaging, and UI hero text for tech or gaming themes. It can also work for short labels and signage where a compact, high-impact voice is desired.
The overall tone is bold and synthetic, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, hardware labeling, and arcade-era display lettering. Its rounded-square construction feels modern and utilitarian while still friendly, balancing toughness with softened edges.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a unified superelliptical construction, producing a contemporary display sans that signals technology and performance. The consistent rounding and broad letterforms suggest an emphasis on strong silhouettes and quick recognition in bold branding contexts.
Diagonal-driven shapes (A, V, W, X, Y, Z) are cut with crisp angles that contrast with the rounded bowls, reinforcing a technical, machined aesthetic. Lowercase forms are sturdy and simplified, and the numerals share the same squared, softened geometry for cohesive alphanumeric texture.
