Sans Faceted Ufba 9 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Febrotesk 4F' by 4th february, 'Racon' by Ahmet Altun, 'Protrakt Variable' by Arkitype, 'Evanston Tavern' by Kimmy Design, 'Conifer' by Ryan Keightley, and 'Beachwood' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with crisp chamfered corners and planar cuts that replace curves with short straight facets. Strokes are consistently thick with squared terminals, creating a compact, high-impact silhouette. Counters are geometric and often rectangular or octagonal, while joins and diagonals are sharply articulated (notably in K, V, W, X, and the numerals). Overall spacing and proportions feel sturdy and tightly set, favoring solid forms and clear edges over softness.
Best suited to large-scale display work where its angular facets and dense strokes can read cleanly—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, sports branding, and signage. It also fits interface moments that want a rugged, technical voice, such as gaming overlays, scoreboard-style graphics, and product markings, while smaller text may need generous tracking to avoid crowding.
The faceted construction reads as industrial and mechanical, evoking equipment labeling, sports identity systems, and game or sci‑fi interfaces. Its hard edges and dense weight project toughness, urgency, and a utilitarian confidence with a slight retro arcade/scoreboard flavor.
The design intention appears to be a robust display sans that translates a geometric, machined look into a consistent full alphabet and numerals. By standardizing corners into chamfers and minimizing curvature, it aims for immediate impact, strong legibility at size, and a distinctive industrial identity.
Round characters like O, C, G, and S are expressed through clipped geometry, giving the alphabet a consistent octagonal rhythm. The lowercase maintains the same block logic and heft as the capitals, producing a strong uniform color in text and a distinctly engineered texture at larger sizes.
