Sans Faceted Asba 1 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Gainsborough' by Fenotype, 'Flintstock' by Hustle Supply Co, 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type, 'Refinery' by Kimmy Design, 'Navine' by OneSevenPointFive, 'Hemispheres' by Runsell Type, 'Manifest' by Yasin Yalcin, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-constructed sans with pronounced chamfered corners that turn most curves into short planar cuts. Strokes stay uniform and straight, producing compact, squared counters and octagonal rounds (notably in C/G/O/Q and numerals). The lowercase follows the same faceted logic with sturdy stems and simplified terminals; bowls and apertures are tight and geometric, and the overall rhythm feels dense and punchy in text.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, and branding where strong silhouette and angular character are an advantage. It can work for short bursts of text such as labels, apparel graphics, and impact-driven packaging, especially at medium to large sizes where the faceting remains crisp.
The faceted geometry and massed black shapes give the type a tough, utilitarian voice with strong sports and industrial signaling. Its blunt angles and compact counters suggest impact, durability, and a slightly retro display attitude rather than a neutral everyday tone.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a simplified, machined geometry: a monolithic, corner-cut construction that preserves readability while projecting strength and speed. Its consistent chamfers and tight counters aim for a distinctive display identity that feels engineered and emblematic.
Diagonal joins are used sparingly and purposefully (K, V, W, X, Y), staying consistent with the clipped-corner theme. Numerals are similarly octagonal and sign-like, with the 0 and 8 built from squared inner counters that read clearly at large sizes.
