Sans Faceted Mini 1 is a bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Space Race' by Comicraft, 'Tradesman' by Grype, and 'Hyperspace Race' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A faceted, all-caps-forward sans with squared geometry and consistent chamfered corners in place of curves. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, with abrupt planar joins that create an octagonal rhythm in bowls and counters (notably in O, D, and 0). Proportions are condensed with a tall lowercase presence, and spacing reads compact and efficient, producing a tight, vertical texture in text. Diagonals are straight and crisp, terminals are flat, and counters tend to be narrow and angular, emphasizing a hard-edged, engineered silhouette.
This style performs best in short, bold applications where its faceted silhouettes can carry the composition: posters, titles, signage, labels, and impact-forward branding. It can also work for UI accents or scoreboards where a compact footprint and angular forms help create a strong, structured hierarchy.
The overall tone feels industrial and technical, with a confident, utilitarian voice. Its sharp facets and condensed stance also evoke athletic numbering, machinery labeling, and a retro digital/arcade sensibility without becoming playful.
The design appears intended to translate a rigid, geometric sans into a faceted system, replacing curves with planar cuts for a tougher, more architectural presence. It prioritizes punchy, high-impact shapes and a consistent mechanical rhythm suited to display-centric typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same angular construction, giving mixed-case settings a uniform, built-from-panels feel. Numerals are especially signage-friendly, with clear, geometric forms and consistent chamfering that maintains identity at a glance.
