Sans Superellipse Waha 4 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Seeker' by Asenbayu, 'Midnight Sans' by Colophon Foundry, 'Clonoid' by Dharma Type, and 'Premis' by Fenotype (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface is built from chunky, rounded-rectangle forms with softened corners and generally squared-off curves, creating a superellipse-like geometry throughout. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with minimal modulation and a tight, engineered feel. Counters are compact and often rectangular (notably in O/0, B, 8), while joins and terminals tend to be blunt or slightly chamfered, producing a crisp, machined silhouette. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic, with single-storey a and g, a short-armed t, and a simple, straight-stemmed i/j with square dots; overall spacing reads sturdy and slightly condensed in the internal openings rather than the outer width.
It performs best where impact and immediate recognition matter, such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging callouts, sports and esports graphics, and tech or gaming interface display text. It is especially suited to short phrases, titling, and signage-style applications where its dense counters and constructed forms read as intentional design.
The overall tone is modern and hard-working, leaning toward a sci‑fi and performance aesthetic. Its squared curves and dense black shapes feel confident and utilitarian, suggesting technology, equipment labeling, and bold branding rather than softness or traditional editorial refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary voice using a consistent rounded-rectilinear system, balancing hard edges with softened corners for a sleek, manufactured feel. The goal seems to be high visual presence and a distinctive, futuristic silhouette that remains coherent across letters and numerals.
Round characters retain a flattened, squarish curvature, and several letters show deliberately reduced apertures (such as S and e), reinforcing a compact, logo-forward look. Numerals echo the same rounded-rectangle construction, with a particularly geometric 0 and an angular 7 that add to the technical rhythm.
