Sans Faceted Tydi 5 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height, monospaced font visually similar to 'Proto Mono' by ATK Studio, 'Charles Wright' by K-Type, and 'Archimoto V01' and 'Nue Archimoto' by Owl king project (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, modular sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, with curves consistently replaced by planar facets. Stems and horizontals keep an even stroke presence, while terminals are squared off or chamfered to create octagonal counters and rounded-rectangle silhouettes. Proportions are sturdy and space-efficient, with generous internal openings for the style and a steady, mechanical rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The overall construction feels grid-driven and consistent, emphasizing crisp corners over softness.
Well-suited for on-screen headings, HUD-style UI labels, and product or equipment-inspired branding where a technical voice is desired. It also works for posters, event graphics, and packaging that benefit from a bold, geometric texture and a retro-futuristic edge. For longer passages, it is best used in short blocks or at comfortable sizes where the faceting can be appreciated.
The faceted geometry gives the face a distinctly technical, machine-made tone—part industrial labeling, part retro-digital display. Its angular rounding and squared details evoke arcade UI, sci‑fi interfaces, and engineered products, projecting firmness and precision rather than warmth or delicacy.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, grid-based construction into a readable sans, prioritizing uniformity and a distinctive faceted silhouette. By systematically chamfering corners and minimizing true curves, it aims for an efficient, engineered look that stays consistent across the full alphanumeric set.
Distinctive chamfers show up repeatedly in characters with bowls and diagonals, creating a cohesive octagonal language across counters and joins. Numerals follow the same squared, segmented logic, and punctuation/dots appear deliberately rectangular, reinforcing the engineered, modular personality.
