Sans Faceted Afse 11 is a very bold, very narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Kufica' by Artegra, 'Fresno' by Parkinson, and 'Monbloc' by Rui Nogueira (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, all-caps-friendly sans with sharply faceted corners that replace curves with clipped, planar cuts. Strokes stay largely uniform, producing dense, vertical silhouettes and tight interior counters, while the geometry leans on straight stems, squared terminals, and octagonal rounding. The lowercase echoes the uppercase structure, keeping a rigid, modular rhythm; figures follow the same narrow, stacked proportions for consistent texture in mixed text.
Best suited to display typography where its angular facets can be appreciated—headlines, posters, logos, and bold brand marks. It also works well for signage and packaging that want a compact, industrial look, and for interface or game-themed titles where a rigid, technical texture is desirable.
The overall tone is mechanical and assertive, with a crafted, chiseled feel that reads as utilitarian and slightly retro-futuristic. Its compressed stance and hard angles convey urgency and control, making the voice feel engineered rather than friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, space-efficient voice with a geometric, faceted construction that stands out from rounded grotesques. Its consistent, chiseled forms suggest an aim for high visual impact and a coherent, engineered aesthetic across letters and numerals.
The faceting creates distinctive corner highlights and gives even simple forms a technical, machined character. At small sizes, the tight counters and compact spacing can make dense passages feel heavy, while at display sizes the angular details become a key stylistic feature.
