Sans Faceted Kowu 2 is a bold, very wide, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'HK Modular' by Hanken Design Co. and 'Imagine Font' by Jens Isensee (names referenced only for comparison).

A sharply faceted, geometric sans with broad proportions and squared counters. Curves are largely replaced by clipped corners and planar cuts, producing octagonal bowls and chamfered terminals across the set. Stroke weight stays visually consistent, with flat horizontal and vertical strokes and diagonal joins used for letter shaping (notably in V/W/X/Y and the angled notches seen in C/S). The overall rhythm is wide and steady, with compact apertures and a clean, engineered silhouette that reads best at medium to large sizes.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and short blocks of display text where its wide stance and angular detailing can be appreciated. It also fits gaming and sci‑fi themed interfaces, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a crisp, technical aesthetic.
The letterforms project a futuristic, utilitarian tone—more machine-made than handwritten. Its faceted cuts evoke sci‑fi interfaces, arcade cabinets, and industrial labeling, giving text a deliberate, high-impact presence.
The design appears intended to translate a strict geometric system into a bold display voice, using faceted corner cuts to suggest speed, precision, and digital/industrial manufacturing. Consistent stroke behavior and repeated chamfer motifs aim for strong cohesion across letters and numerals.
Uppercase and lowercase share a closely related construction, with lowercase forms often appearing as simplified, compact counterparts rather than cursive variants. Numerals follow the same chamfered geometry, maintaining strong consistency in corner treatment and interior shapes.
