Sans Faceted Afbi 2 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Corner Deli' and 'Leftfield' by Fenotype, 'Evanston Tavern' by Kimmy Design, and 'Manifest' by Yasin Yalcin (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy display sans with sharply chamfered corners that turn rounds into faceted, near-octagonal forms. Strokes stay consistently thick and blunt-ended, producing a sturdy, monolithic texture and strong vertical emphasis. Counters are small and tight, with squared interior shapes (notably in O/0 and B/P/R) and a generally condensed stance that keeps word shapes dense. The lowercase follows the same hard-edged construction, mixing simplified, geometric bowls with straight-sided stems for a cohesive, engineered look.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where its heavy, faceted forms can read cleanly and project impact. It works particularly well for sports and performance branding, industrial or tech-forward packaging, event posters, badges, and labels. For longer paragraphs, the tight counters and dense color suggest using generous tracking and ample size to maintain clarity.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, with a sporty, industrial edge. Its faceted geometry reads as technical and manufactured, evoking stenciled signage, scoreboard lettering, and retro-futurist branding. The dense rhythm and sharp corners add urgency and assertiveness, making it feel commanding rather than casual.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted construction into a bold, compact display voice—prioritizing impact, uniform stroke presence, and a consistent chamfered corner system over naturalistic curves. It aims to deliver strong recognizability and a rugged, engineered personality in branding and signage contexts.
Diagonal joins and clipped terminals create consistent corner behavior across the set, reinforcing the planar construction even in traditionally curved letters. Numerals echo the same octagonal logic and hold up well at display sizes where the small counters and tight apertures become part of the aesthetic.
