Sans Faceted Afba 7 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Dealers' by Gumpita Rahayu, 'Born Strong' by Rook Supply, 'Breuer Condensed' by TypeTrust, 'Hurdle' by Umka Type, and 'Hockeynight Sans' by XTOPH (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp chamfers and octagonal counters. Stems keep a largely uniform thickness, with squared terminals and frequent diagonal facet cuts that create a mechanical, stenciled-adjacent rhythm without true breaks. Letterforms are tall and condensed with tight interior spaces; bowls and rounds read as multi-sided shapes, and diagonal letters use steep, planar joins for a rigid, engineered look. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, with angular openings and sturdy, blocklike proportions.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold titling where its angular facets can be read clearly. It also fits sports branding, event graphics, packaging callouts, and punchy signage that benefits from a condensed, high-impact word shape.
The faceted geometry gives the font a tough, no-nonsense voice that feels athletic and utilitarian. Its sharp corners and dense color evoke sports lettering, industrial signage, and retro arcade/scoreboard energy while staying clean and contemporary in execution.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint, using a consistent system of chamfered corners to suggest strength, speed, and manufactured precision. The faceted construction prioritizes a distinctive silhouette and strong texture over subtlety, making it ideal for attention-grabbing display typography.
Because the counters are small and the shapes are dense, the face holds up best when given room to breathe; tighter tracking can make interiors close up quickly. The consistent chamfer language across caps, lowercase, and figures creates a cohesive texture, especially in all-caps settings and short emphatic lines.
