Sans Faceted Epgi 2 is a bold, normal width, high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Hanley Pro' by District 62 Studio, 'GS Frank' by Great Scott, and 'Octin College' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with sharply faceted construction where curves are replaced by clipped corners and straight segments. Strokes are chunky and mostly monolinear in feel, with crisp, planar joins that create an octagonal rhythm in round letters and numerals. The texture includes intentional abrasion and tiny voids along strokes, producing a worn, screen-printed look rather than a perfectly solid fill. Counters are tight and squarish, terminals are blunt, and the overall silhouette reads compact and blocky while maintaining clear letter differentiation in the sample text.
Best suited for display settings where impact and texture are assets: posters, headlines, sports branding, packaging, apparel graphics, and labels. It also works well for short-form messaging on signage or UI accents when a rugged, industrial voice is desired; for longer passages, the heavy mass and distressed detail are more effective in moderation.
The faceted shapes and distressed surface give the font a tough, utilitarian tone—part industrial signage, part athletic/varsity energy. It feels bold and forceful, with a slightly gritty, DIY print vibe that suggests durability and action. The angular geometry adds a technical, machined character that reads modern and no-nonsense.
The design appears intended to translate a bold geometric sans into a faceted, engineered aesthetic, then add wear to evoke printed grit and real-world materials. Its consistent corner clipping and octagonal rounding suggest a system built for strong silhouettes and quick recognition, with the texture providing character and atmosphere.
The distressed patterning varies within glyphs, creating a lively, imperfect texture that becomes more apparent at larger sizes. Diagonals are steep and clean, and many traditionally round forms (like O/0 and C) resolve into multi-sided outlines, reinforcing a consistent hard-edged system across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
