Sans Faceted Tyjo 4 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Kiosk' by Fenotype, 'Kurdis' by That That Creative, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed display sans built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar facets. Stems are heavy and consistent, with minimal contrast and squared terminals that read as cut or milled rather than drawn. Counters are compact and mostly rectangular, and the overall rhythm is vertical and punchy with tight internal spacing. Lowercase follows the same geometric, faceted construction, with short extenders and a straightforward, utilitarian silhouette.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and branding where compact width and strong presence are needed. It also fits athletic applications (jerseys, team marks, event graphics) and bold labeling contexts like packaging, wayfinding, and industrial-style signage where angular construction supports quick recognition at large sizes.
The tone is forceful and functional, evoking stenciled signage, sports numbering, and industrial labeling. Its sharp corners and compressed width create a no-nonsense, high-impact voice that feels both retro and mechanical.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint, using faceted geometry to suggest precision and toughness. Its consistent, blocklike construction prioritizes clarity and a strong silhouette over softness or typographic nuance.
The faceting is applied consistently across rounds (e.g., O/C/G-like forms), giving a uniform, engineered look. At smaller sizes the tight apertures and dense counters may begin to close, while at headline sizes the crisp angles and strong verticals become a defining graphic feature.
