Sans Faceted Urta 9 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Eurostile Unicase' by Linotype, 'Logik' by Monotype, 'Otoiwo Grotesk' by Pepper Type, '946 Latin' by Roman Type, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with sharp planar facets replacing curves and generous, squared counters. Terminals are consistently clipped or chamfered, producing a beveled, machined silhouette across rounds like O/Q and bowls like B/P. The design keeps strokes broadly uniform, with wide, stable proportions and compact internal openings that read as rectangular “windows.” Lowercase forms are similarly constructed and somewhat simplified, with single-storey a and g-like forms and a sturdy, geometric rhythm that favors hard corners over smooth joins.
Best suited to large sizes where its faceted detailing and compact counters can stay clear: posters, titles, team or product branding, game and sci‑fi interface graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It also works well for short labels and numerals in technical or industrial-themed layouts, while extended small text may feel dense due to the tight interior spaces.
The overall tone is mechanical and high-impact, evoking hardware stamping, vehicle markings, and futuristic UI typography. Its faceted cuts and tight counters add a tactical, engineered feel that comes across as assertive and performance-driven rather than friendly or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, engineered presence by translating classic sans structures into a faceted, beveled geometry. Emphasis is on impact and a consistent “machined” rhythm, prioritizing a distinctive display voice over neutral text versatility.
The figure set follows the same squared, chamfered logic, with notably angular 2, 3, and 5 and an octagonal 0. The Q uses a distinct angular tail, and diagonals in letters like K, V, W, X, and Y are broad and forceful, reinforcing the font’s rugged, constructed character.
