Sans Faceted Mibo 3 is a regular weight, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'CA Uruguay' by Cape Arcona Type Foundry, 'Handelson' by Melvastype, and 'PF Handbook Pro' by Parachute (names referenced only for comparison).

A faceted, angular sans with monoline strokes and consistent chamfered corners that replace most curves with clipped diagonals. The shapes are built from straight segments and octagonal counters, producing a sturdy, sign-like silhouette with even color and clean joins. Uppercase forms read wide and stable, while the lowercase keeps simplified, single-storey structures with squared terminals and compact bowls. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, with an octagonal zero and sharply notched diagonals that maintain a uniform, mechanical rhythm.
This font is well suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a hard-edged, engineered look is desired. It works particularly well for sports identities, team graphics, product marks, and signage-style applications that benefit from strong silhouettes and consistent stroke weight. For longer reading, it is best used at moderate to large sizes where the faceting can be appreciated without crowding.
The overall tone is industrial and athletic, with a techno edge created by the repeated corner cuts and polygonal counters. It feels functional and engineered rather than expressive, projecting toughness and precision. The faceting adds a subtle retro-futurist flavor reminiscent of stenciled or equipment-marking aesthetics without becoming overtly decorative.
The design intention appears to be creating a clean, modern sans whose personality comes from systematic corner chamfers and planar geometry. By substituting curves with facets and keeping stroke weight even, it aims for a rugged, technical presence that stays legible and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The repeated chamfers create clear internal shapes and strong word silhouettes, especially in all-caps settings. Diagonal-heavy letters (like K, V, W, X, Y, Z) gain extra snap from the clipped terminals, and round letters (C, G, O, Q) become near-octagonal, reinforcing a cohesive system across cases and figures.
