Sans Faceted Asba 10 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Corner Deli' by Fenotype, 'Alma Mater' by Studio K, 'Hockeynight Sans' by XTOPH, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, condensed display sans built from straight strokes and sharply chamfered corners, replacing curves with faceted cuts and flattened terminals. Counters are tight and mostly rectangular, producing compact interior spaces and a dense color on the page. Stroke weight stays consistent, while joins and corners form an octagonal rhythm that reads clearly at large sizes. Uppercase forms are especially squared and uniform, and the lowercase echoes the same geometry with compact bowls and short ascenders/descenders for a sturdy, boxed-in silhouette.
This font suits bold headlines, posters, and branding that needs an athletic or industrial punch. It works well for team marks, event graphics, packaging callouts, and wayfinding where compact width and high impact help fit strong messaging into tight spaces. For body text, it’s more effective in short bursts—subheads, labels, or emphasis—than in long paragraphs.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, with a sporty, team-jersey energy and an industrial edge. Its angular facets and compressed stance suggest speed, impact, and durability rather than softness or elegance. The look feels familiar from signage and sports branding where bold, no-nonsense letterforms are expected.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a compact footprint, using faceted geometry to evoke ruggedness and speed. Its consistent angular system suggests a goal of strong recognizability across letters and numbers, optimized for display settings where hard edges and tight counters amplify presence.
The faceting is applied consistently across rounds (like C, O, G, S) and diagonals (like A, K, V, W), creating a cohesive modular feel. Narrow apertures and tight counters make it best used with generous tracking and ample line spacing when set in longer phrases, as shown in the sample text.
