Sans Faceted Anfa 5 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Infield' and 'Outlast' by BoxTube Labs, 'Genesee JNL' by Jeff Levine, and 'PTL Notes Soft' by Primetype (names referenced only for comparison).
Keywords: headlines, logos, posters, sports branding, gaming ui, athletic, industrial, aggressive, retro, arcade, high impact, stencil-like clarity, geometric consistency, space efficiency, display legibility, angular, blocky, chamfered, chunky, compact counters.
The letterforms are built from chunky strokes with crisp, chamfered corners and polygonal "curves" that resolve into short straight segments. Counters tend toward octagonal shapes, and terminals frequently end in clipped angles, creating a consistent, machined rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. The texture is dense and steady, with compact internal space and a strong, blocky silhouette that stays legible through its clear geometry.
It works best for headlines, logos, badges, and packaging where a bold, angular presence is desirable. The style suits sports branding, gaming and esports graphics, posters, apparel marks, and UI titling where short text needs to read with authority. It is less suited to long passages at small sizes due to its dense forms and tight counters.
This font projects a tough, energetic attitude with a distinctly engineered feel. The faceted construction and hard corners suggest utility and impact rather than softness, giving it a sporty, game-like confidence that reads as bold and assertive.
The design appears intended for high-impact display settings where a strong silhouette and quick recognition matter. By replacing curves with planar facets and using clipped terminals, it aims to deliver a rugged, technical voice with consistent geometry across the set.
Capitals and numerals share a pronounced octagonal motif (notably in O/0/8/9), reinforcing a unified, faceted theme. Lowercase retains the same clipped construction, producing a cohesive, rugged texture in mixed-case text.
