Sans Superellipse Himav 15 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Mercurial' by Grype; 'Gotham' by Hoefler & Co.; 'Amfibia', 'Karibu', and 'Movida' by ROHH; and 'Sans Beam' by Stawix (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions and generously rounded corners that give counters and curves a superellipse-like feel. Strokes are uniformly thick, producing dense silhouettes and a strong, even color in text. Apertures are generally tight, terminals are blunt, and curves transition quickly into straight segments, creating a sturdy, engineered rhythm. Numerals and capitals share a tall, condensed stance, and the overall spacing reads controlled and packed for impact.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short, high-impact copy where its dense weight and condensed width maximize presence. It also fits signage, packaging, and branding marks that benefit from a tough, contemporary sans with softened corners and strong legibility at display sizes.
The tone is direct and forceful, balancing toughness with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry. It feels modern and practical, with a no-nonsense voice suited to bold statements rather than delicate nuance.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch in limited horizontal space while keeping shapes approachable through rounded corners. The consistent stroke weight and compact counters suggest an emphasis on bold, reliable communication for display-driven typography.
The design favors closed forms and compact counters, which enhances solidity at large sizes but can make small-size text feel dark and compressed. Round letters (like O and 0) appear more like rounded rectangles than circles, reinforcing the structured, industrial character.
