Sans Faceted Lyko 1 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Military Jr34' by Casloop Studio, 'Panton Rust' by Fontfabric, 'Charles Wright' by K-Type, 'Evanston Tavern' by Kimmy Design, 'B52' by Komet & Flicker, and 'Deciso' by Stefano Giliberti (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp chamfers and short diagonals. The forms read as monoline with consistent stroke thickness, creating a compact, blocky silhouette and strong color on the line. Counters and bowls tend toward octagonal shapes (notably in O/0 and rounded lowercase), and joins are sharp and planar rather than smooth. Spacing appears fairly tight and regular, with sturdy caps and simplified lowercase that stays close to the same visual weight as the uppercase.
This font is well suited to display typography such as headlines, badges, labels, and logo wordmarks where its angular construction can carry the visual identity. It also works well for sports and esports branding, product packaging, and high-impact posters, as well as UI moments like counters, stats, or short callouts when a technical, rugged tone is desired.
The overall tone is mechanical and assertive, with a faceted, hardware-like feel that suggests engineered objects, signage, and equipment markings. Its angular rhythm gives it a modern-tech edge while also nodding to retro athletic and arcade aesthetics. The bold, clipped shapes project durability and urgency more than softness or elegance.
The design appears intended to translate a faceted, machined geometry into a practical sans that remains readable while emphasizing sharp planar cuts. By standardizing chamfered corners and minimizing true curves, it aims for a strong, contemporary display voice that feels industrial and performance-oriented.
The faceting is applied consistently across rounds and terminals, creating a coherent system of corner cuts that keeps shapes legible at display sizes. Numerals share the same octagonal logic and feel especially suited to identifiers and score-like readouts. The distinctive, squared-off construction can become busy in long passages, favoring short lines and larger sizes.
