Sans Faceted Urto 4 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Matroska' by Brainware Graphic, 'Midnight Sans' by Colophon Foundry, 'Hyperspace Race Capsule' by Swell Type, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface is built from heavy, planar strokes with chamfered corners and faceted joins that replace traditional curves. Bowls and rounds resolve into octagonal silhouettes, and counters are compact and geometric, with small horizontal cut-ins visible in letters like E, B, and S. The overall construction feels modular and engineered, with straight terminals, squared apertures, and a consistently hard edge throughout. Lowercase forms echo the caps with similarly angular shaping, and figures follow the same beveled, display-oriented geometry.
Best suited for headlines and short display settings where the faceted geometry can be appreciated—titles, poster typography, branding marks, packaging callouts, and esports or gaming-themed graphics. It also works well for tech-oriented UI accents, section headers, and signage where a bold, engineered look is desired.
The face conveys a distinctly futuristic, machine-made tone—confident, forceful, and game- or sci‑fi-adjacent. Its sharp facets and dense massing read as technical and armored, suggesting speed, hardware, and digital interfaces rather than warmth or delicacy.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-surface, sci‑fi industrial aesthetic into a readable sans, using bevels and planar facets to suggest machined metal and digital hardware forms. Its emphasis on strong silhouettes and distinctive corners prioritizes impact and theme over neutral text texture.
At text sizes the tight counters and frequent chamfers can create a busy interior rhythm, so spacing and size will strongly affect clarity. The design’s distinctive cut corners and inset bars give it a recognizable signature that stands out most in short phrases.
