Sans Faceted Abbas 4 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Genesee JNL' by Jeff Levine, 'Bourton' by Kimmy Design, 'Letteria Pro' by Latinotype, 'Brainy Variable Sans' by Maculinc, 'Gemsbuck Pro' by Studio Fat Cat, 'Signal' by URW Type Foundry, and 'Manifest' by Yasin Yalcin (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with crisp chamfered corners that turn curves into planar facets. Strokes are consistently thick with squared terminals, producing sturdy silhouettes and tight, angular counters—especially in rounds like O, C, G, and the numerals. Proportions lean wide and compact in feel, with simple, geometric joins and minimal modulation, giving the alphabet a uniform, cut-from-plate rhythm. Lowercase forms follow the same faceted logic, keeping bowls and shoulders angular and the overall texture dense and highly legible at display sizes.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, and branding that needs impact—especially sports-themed graphics, team marks, and event promotions. It also works well for packaging, labels, and signage where a strong, industrial geometric voice helps text hold its ground against busy layouts.
The tone is bold and assertive, with a no-nonsense, athletic energy. Its faceted geometry suggests hard materials and engineered forms, reading as rugged, utilitarian, and slightly retro in a varsity/scoreboard-adjacent way.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, cut-corner display look into a consistent alphabet that remains clear and forceful. By replacing smooth curves with facets and keeping strokes solid and uniform, it aims for maximum punch and immediate recognition in large-scale typography.
The octagonal construction creates distinct inner shapes and sharp corners that pop in headlines and signage, while the compact apertures can visually fill in at very small sizes or in low-contrast reproduction. Numerals share the same cut-corner vocabulary, supporting cohesive titling and numbering applications.
