Sans Faceted Etvi 1 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Refinery' by Kimmy Design, 'Navine' by OneSevenPointFive, 'Gemsbuck Pro' by Studio Fat Cat, and 'Purista' by Suitcase Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

An angular, slanted sans with pronounced chamfers that turn curves into crisp, faceted corners. Strokes are consistently heavy and largely monolinear, producing strong, dark text color and a compact rhythm. Counters tend toward octagonal shapes (notably in O, C, G, 0, 8, 9), while terminals are clipped rather than rounded, reinforcing a mechanical, engineered feel. The lowercase is simple and sturdy with minimal modulation, and numerals share the same faceted construction for a cohesive alphanumeric set.
Best suited to short-form display settings where its faceted geometry and slanted stance can carry personality—headlines, posters, esports and sports identities, product marks, and tech or industrial packaging. It can also work for UI labels or navigation in gaming/tech contexts when used at sizes that preserve the sharp corner details.
The overall tone feels sporty and utilitarian, with a tactical, performance-oriented edge. Its sharp geometry and forward slant suggest motion and urgency, while the faceting adds a rugged, industrial character that reads as technical and modern.
This design appears intended to translate a geometric, machined aesthetic into a practical sans for attention-grabbing display use. By replacing curves with planar facets and keeping strokes solid and consistent, it aims to deliver a fast, assertive look with strong visual cohesion across letters and figures.
Diagonal joins and clipped corners create a consistent “cut metal” texture across words, helping the face maintain character at larger sizes. The faceted construction is especially apparent in rounded letters and bowls, giving headings a distinctive, emblem-like presence.
