Sans Superellipse Hakow 4 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Air Force' by Indian Summer Studio, 'Evanston Tavern' by Kimmy Design, and 'B52' by Komet & Flicker (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy geometric sans with forms built from rounded rectangles and clipped corners, producing a distinctly squared-yet-soft silhouette. Strokes are consistently thick and even, with tight counters and short apertures that emphasize a compact, modular rhythm. Curves are minimized in favor of superelliptical bowls and squared terminals, while diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y) remain crisp and angular. The numerals echo the same rounded-rect geometry, giving the set a cohesive, engineered texture in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited for display work where strong presence and a techno-industrial voice are desired, such as headlines, titles, logos, posters, esports/gaming graphics, and interface labels. It can also work for short blocks of text at larger sizes where its compact apertures and dense texture remain clear.
The overall tone is modern and mechanical, with a forward-leaning, tech-oriented feel. Its blocky construction and softened corners read as confident and utilitarian, suggesting contemporary hardware, interfaces, and performance branding rather than editorial warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary voice using superelliptical construction: squared forms with rounded corners, consistent stroke weight, and a deliberately compact rhythm. The goal seems to be high-impact readability with a recognizable tech/industrial signature across letters and numerals.
Spacing and proportions feel intentionally compact, with counters that stay relatively small at display sizes, creating strong color and high impact. Several letters use flattened joins and cut-in notches, reinforcing a manufactured, modular aesthetic across the alphabet and figures.
