Sans Faceted Syba 12 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'QB One' by BoxTube Labs, 'Bike Tag JNL' and 'KP Duty JNL' by Jeff Levine, 'Block Capitals' by K-Type, 'Gemsbuck Pro' by Studio Fat Cat, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and sharp chamfered corners, with curves largely replaced by planar facets. The letterforms are compact and squared-off, with consistent stroke weight and tight, utilitarian counters (notably in O, D, P, and 8). Terminals and joins frequently resolve into clipped angles, giving diagonals (V, W, Y, K) a crisp, machined feel. The rhythm is sturdy and stable, favoring broad shoulders and strong horizontals, while numerals follow the same faceted logic for a cohesive, sign-like set.
Best suited for large-scale applications where its angular facets and dense silhouettes can read clearly: headlines, posters, branding marks, team or event graphics, and bold signage. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when strong emphasis is needed, though the compact counters suggest avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, projecting a hard-edged, engineered character. Its faceted geometry reads as sporty and industrial, with a subtle retro-arcade flavor that feels at home in high-impact, display-forward settings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through sturdy geometry and chamfered detailing, translating a technical, fabricated look into a highly legible display sans. Its consistent faceting suggests an emphasis on a recognizable visual signature across letters and numerals.
The design maintains a consistent angular motif across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping mixed-case text keep a unified texture. The lowercase stays similarly blocky and architectural, preserving the font’s display presence even outside all-caps use.
