Sans Faceted Nyhi 9 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Judgement' by Device and 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, monolinear sans built from crisp planar facets rather than smooth curves. Strokes are consistently heavy with chamfered corners and octagonal rounds, producing a stenciled-by-geometry feel without actual breaks. Counters are narrow and vertically oriented, with straight-sided bowls and clipped terminals that keep the texture tight and rhythmic. The lowercase follows the same rigid construction with a tall x-height and compact apertures, while numerals and capitals maintain a uniform, upright stance and a strong vertical emphasis.
Best suited to impactful headlines and short display lines where its compressed width and heavy strokes can deliver maximum presence. It also fits branding marks, packaging callouts, event posters, and high-contrast signage where a technical, modern voice is desired.
The overall tone is industrial and futuristic, with an engineered, machine-made presence. Its sharp facets and dense spacing read as assertive and controlled, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, technical labeling, and modernist poster vernacular.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted construction into a bold condensed sans that feels machined and contemporary. By replacing curves with consistent chamfers and keeping stroke weight steady, it aims for a distinctive display texture that stays disciplined and highly repeatable across letters and figures.
The faceting is applied consistently across rounds (C, O, G) and joints, creating a coherent polygonal silhouette across the set. Many shapes rely on narrow internal space, so legibility holds best at larger sizes where the angular counters and small apertures can be clearly resolved.
