Sans Faceted Tyjo 1 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Refinery' by Kimmy Design; 'Hype vol 3' by Positype; 'Angmar', 'Delonie', and 'Headpen' by Umka Type; and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed, heavy display face built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners. Curves are largely replaced by planar facets, producing octagonal bowls and clipped terminals throughout. Stems are uniform and dense, with compact counters and a steady vertical rhythm that keeps lines looking solid and poster-ready. The lowercase is similarly narrow and sturdy, pairing simple, block-like forms with minimal rounding so the overall texture stays hard-edged and consistent.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and branding that benefits from a tough, engineered look. It also works well for signage, labels, and packaging where bold, condensed letterforms help maximize presence in limited space.
The tone is forceful and pragmatic, with a rugged, no-nonsense presence. Its faceted geometry and tight proportions evoke industrial labeling, athletic titling, and bold headline messaging where clarity and impact matter more than softness or nuance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact footprint, using faceted construction to create a distinctive, machined silhouette. Its consistent stroke weight and clipped geometry suggest an emphasis on durability, reproducibility, and strong graphic rhythm.
At text sizes the narrow fit and small internal spaces can make long passages feel dense, but it excels when used with generous tracking or larger sizes. The numeral set matches the same clipped, engineered construction, keeping headings and data-heavy callouts visually cohesive.
