Sans Faceted Afvi 3 is a bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height, monospaced font visually similar to 'Noplato' by Drizy Font, 'KSW Uberground Mono Std' and 'KSW Uberground Pro' by Koshawa, and 'Cindie 2' by Lewis McGuffie Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar facets throughout. Stems and crossbars keep a consistent stroke weight, while counters tend toward octagonal and rectangular shapes, producing a machined, cut-metal feel. The overall rhythm is steady and grid-like, with squarish proportions and tight internal spacing that stays highly legible at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same blunt, geometric construction, and diagonals are cleanly clipped rather than rounded.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and large-format typography where the angular construction can be appreciated. It also fits utilitarian applications like signage, labeling, packaging callouts, and UI/console-style graphics that benefit from a rigid, technical voice.
The face reads as practical and tough, with a disciplined, engineered tone that suggests signage, equipment markings, and retro-futurist interfaces. Its sharp facets and dense color give it an assertive presence, leaning more functional than friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver a sturdy, space-efficient display sans with a distinctly faceted geometry, prioritizing strong readability and a manufactured aesthetic over organic softness.
Distinctive corner cuts and flattened terminals create strong silhouettes and reduce any hint of softness. The design’s geometric consistency makes it feel systematic, with letterforms that look intentionally standardized for repeatable, modular composition.
