Sans Faceted Heja 5 is a bold, very narrow, monoline, upright, short x-height font visually similar to 'Coldfield JNL' by Jeff Levine (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed sans with a monoline skeleton and sharply faceted, clipped corners that turn curves into small planar segments. Stroke terminals are mostly straight and squared, while bowls and rounds (such as C, G, O, Q, and 0) read as octagonal forms. The overall rhythm is vertical and compact, with narrow apertures and generous internal counters relative to the stroke. Lowercase forms are simplified and mechanical, with a short x-height and tall ascenders that reinforce the font’s lean, high-rise profile.
Best suited to headlines and display typography where space is tight and a technical, industrial voice is desired. It can work well for signage, product labeling, UI titles, and compact poster typography, especially when a sharply geometric, machined look is appropriate.
The letterforms suggest a functional, engineered tone—clean, controlled, and slightly severe. The faceting introduces a subtle retro-digital and industrial flavor, evoking labeling, equipment marking, and signage rather than softness or warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a condensed grotesque structure into a faceted, chamfered construction, replacing smooth curvature with planar cuts for a more engineered silhouette. It prioritizes compactness and a consistent angular texture to deliver a distinctive display voice while remaining broadly legible.
In text, the condensed proportions create strong line density, and the repeated chamfers give the face a consistent, machined texture. Numerals and caps share the same angular rounding logic, helping mixed settings feel cohesive. The overall effect stays crisp at display sizes, where the faceted geometry is most legible.
