Sans Faceted Ligo 11 is a regular weight, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Forza' by Hoefler & Co., 'Navine' by OneSevenPointFive, 'Hyperspace Race Capsule' by Swell Type, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A sharply angular sans with consistent stroke thickness and frequent chamfered corners that replace curves with planar facets. Bowls and counters tend toward octagonal geometry, with squared terminals and crisp joins that give letters a cut-metal, engineered look. Proportions are generally compact and sturdy, with straightforward construction in both cases; the lowercase uses mostly single-storey forms and simplified shapes that keep the texture even in running text. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with boxy forms and clipped corners for a cohesive set.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, logos, product names, posters, and wayfinding where the faceted construction can be appreciated. It can work for short UI labels or tech-themed graphics, but its strong geometry is most effective when given room in larger sizes.
The faceted geometry and hard edges convey a technical, industrial tone with a subtle sci‑fi flavor. It reads as purposeful and modern—more like signage, equipment labeling, or sports branding than editorial typography.
The design appears intended to translate a conventional sans skeleton into a precise, machined aesthetic by systematically chamfering corners and flattening curves. The goal is a cohesive, contemporary voice that signals technology, durability, and modernity without relying on ornament.
The rhythm is clean and mechanical, with clearly defined corners and minimal modulation, which helps it stay legible at larger sizes while preserving its distinctive angular character. Round-heavy letters (like O/Q/G/S) are especially stylized into multi-sided forms, reinforcing the font’s signature look.
