Sans Faceted Tybu 7 is a regular weight, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Cosan' by Adtypo, 'FS Irwin' by Fontsmith, 'Antipod' by Octotypo, 'Agent Sans' by Positype, and 'Clara Sans' by Signature Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface uses simplified sans forms built from sharp, planar facets rather than smooth curves. Strokes appear largely monoline, with corners cut into short angled segments that create a chiseled outline and a subtly uneven rhythm. Counters are open and geometric, while round letters like O, C, and G become many-sided shapes, reinforcing the polygonal construction. Proportions lean compact in many glyphs, with straightforward terminals and a generally sturdy, poster-friendly silhouette.
Best suited to display settings where its faceted texture can be appreciated: posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging, and campaign graphics. It can also work for short bursts of text—labels, pull quotes, or UI accents—when a rugged, handcrafted voice is desired. For long-form reading, it’s most effective when given generous size and spacing.
The overall tone feels handmade and intentionally rough-cut, like lettering carved from paper or stone. Its angular facets add energy and a touch of mischief, reading as informal and characterful rather than technical or corporate. The texture created by the repeated corner cuts gives it a lively, slightly punk or DIY attitude.
The design appears intended to translate simple sans letterforms into a distinctive, faceted construction that evokes carving or cut-paper geometry. By trading smooth curves for angled planes, it creates a consistent visual hook that adds personality while keeping the underlying forms familiar enough for quick recognition.
The faceting is consistently applied across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a recognizable texture even in paragraph-like samples. Wide joins and blunt terminals help maintain legibility at larger sizes, while the irregularities and tight internal shapes can make long passages feel busy, especially where many angled corners cluster together.
