Sans Faceted Ofba 4 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Necia' by Graviton, 'Patrima' by Juri Zaech, 'Nulato' by Stefan Stoychev, and 'Gemsbuck Pro' by Studio Fat Cat (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, monoline sans with crisp chamfered corners that replace curves with straight facets, yielding an octagonal, machined silhouette across rounds like O, C, and G. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness and terminate in flat, squared ends, with a generally compact feel and generous interior counters for clarity. Uppercase forms are assertive and geometric; lowercase keeps the same faceted logic with simplified, sturdy bowls and short, controlled extenders. Numerals follow the same angular construction, with especially strong, sign-like shapes in 0, 2, 3, and 8.
Best suited to display roles where its faceted construction can be appreciated: headlines, posters, logotypes, packaging, and wayfinding or environmental graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when a rugged, technical voice is desired and ample spacing is available.
The overall tone is mechanical and no-nonsense, evoking fabricated metal, equipment labeling, and engineered surfaces. Its sharp facets and blocky rhythm read as modern and technical, with a sporty edge that feels at home in high-impact, attention-driven settings.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, manufactured look, trading smooth curvature for planar cuts while preserving straightforward readability. It emphasizes consistency of stroke and corner treatment to deliver a strong, contemporary voice that feels engineered and durable.
The repeated corner chamfers create a consistent visual motif that ties the set together and helps prevent dark clumping at larger sizes. In text, the strong verticals and squared geometry produce an emphatic rhythm that prioritizes presence over subtlety.
