Sans Faceted Afgu 11 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Hudson NY Pro' by Arkitype, 'Ft Thyson' by Fateh.Lab, 'Necia' by Graviton, and 'Charles Wright' by K-Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp chamfers and faceted arcs. Strokes are consistently heavy with squared terminals and frequent 45° cuts, creating an octagonal, machined silhouette across rounds and diagonals. Proportions are compact with a tall x-height and short extenders; counters tend to be boxy and relatively tight, giving the face a dense, punchy color. Numerals and capitals share the same disciplined, modular construction, producing an even, grid-friendly rhythm in headlines and tight settings.
Best suited to display roles where strong silhouettes and angular geometry help it stand out: posters, branding marks, packaging, event graphics, and signage. It also works well for UI titles, game graphics, and short technical labels where a compact, engineered look is desirable. For longer paragraphs, its dense counters and heavy texture will generally read more effectively at larger sizes and with generous spacing.
The overall tone feels industrial and tech-forward, with a retro arcade/scoreboard edge. Its hard facets and uniform stroke energy suggest engineered signage, interfaces, and equipment labeling rather than editorial warmth. The look is assertive and functional, leaning into a rugged, mechanical personality.
The design appears intended to translate a modular, machined aesthetic into a robust sans, using systematic chamfers and planar curves to create a consistent faceted voice. It emphasizes durability, legibility at display sizes, and a distinctive technical character suited to contemporary and retro-digital themes.
Diagonal joins are clean and planar, and rounded letters read as multi-sided forms rather than true curves, which reinforces the faceted theme. The lowercase maintains a simplified, schematic feel (notably in shapes like a, g, and e), prioritizing consistency and impact over calligraphic nuance.
