Sans Faceted Fuba 13 is a regular weight, normal width, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Geogrotesque Expanded Series' and 'Geogrotesque Sharp' by Emtype Foundry and 'Celdum' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A sharply faceted sans with a consistent rightward slant and brisk, engineered construction. Curves are largely replaced by planar segments and chamfered corners, giving bowls and rounds an octagonal feel (notably in O/0 and other rounded forms). Strokes remain fairly even in thickness, with clean joins and a compact, forward-leaning rhythm; terminals are typically cut at angles rather than finished flat. Proportions read as broadly geometric with a steady cap height and a moderate x-height, while the overall texture stays crisp and high-contrast in silhouette despite the low internal stroke contrast.
This font is best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, logos, and branding where its faceted silhouette can be appreciated. It also fits technology and sports contexts—interfaces, product marks, or event graphics—where a fast, engineered aesthetic is desirable; for long text, its strong angularity may be more effective in short bursts than in extended reading.
The faceted geometry and italic forward lean create a fast, technical tone that feels modern and equipment-like. Its angular cuts suggest precision and motion, lending a confident, sporty voice well suited to performance and sci‑fi cues.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, machined form, substituting smooth curvature with crisp planes while maintaining legible, contemporary proportions. The italic posture reinforces a sense of speed and direction, emphasizing momentum without relying on ornament.
The polygonal rounding produces distinctive counters and a slightly mechanical cadence in text, especially where repeated diagonals and chamfers appear in sequences. Numerals share the same hard-edged language, reinforcing a cohesive, system-like appearance across letters and figures.
