Sans Faceted Akfe 2 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height, monospaced font visually similar to 'Charles Wright' by K-Type and 'Neumonopolar' and 'Nue Archimoto' by Owl king project (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes with consistent thickness and crisp chamfered corners. Curves are largely replaced by faceted, octagonal turns, giving counters and bowls a cut, planar look (notably in O/0/8 and rounded lowercase forms). The design keeps a compact, sturdy footprint with squared terminals, simple joins, and clear rectangular rhythm, producing a highly uniform texture across lines.
Well-suited to game interfaces, arcade-themed graphics, and technical branding where an angular, machined voice is desired. It performs best in headlines, labels, badges, and short blocks of text where the faceted construction can read crisply and consistently.
The overall tone feels industrial and technical, with a distinctly retro digital flavor reminiscent of arcade, pixel-adjacent, and instrument-panel lettering. Its sharp facets and sturdy mass read as pragmatic and engineered rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The letterforms appear designed to translate rounded geometry into straight-edged facets while preserving recognizability and a steady typographic rhythm. The emphasis is on consistency, impact, and an engineered visual system that feels at home in digital and industrial contexts.
Diagonal cuts are used consistently to soften corners and define ‘round’ shapes, which helps maintain clarity at display sizes. Numerals follow the same faceted logic; 0 is clearly differentiated from O by an internal diagonal slash, reinforcing a functional, coding-friendly feel. The forms are intentionally simplified, prioritizing uniformity and impact over subtle modulation.
