Sans Faceted Anvu 3 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Kickoff' by Din Studio and 'Stallman' and 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-constructed sans with faceted, chamfered corners that replace curves with straight planes. Strokes are consistently thick and low-contrast, with squared terminals and frequent octagonal counterforms (notably in O/o and 0). The design uses tight inner apertures and compact bowls, creating a dense, high-ink texture; diagonals are handled as stepped or planar cuts rather than smooth joins. Overall spacing reads slightly uneven by design, with some letters appearing more condensed or expanded depending on their geometry, reinforcing a modular, engineered rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where bold geometry is an advantage: posters, headlines, branding marks, and short callouts. It also fits UI labels and in-game typography where angular, high-contrast shapes need to read quickly at medium-to-large sizes. For long text, the tight counters and dense color may feel heavy, so generous size and spacing help.
The face conveys a hard-edged, mechanical tone that feels technological and game-like. Its sharp facets and compact counters suggest ruggedness and efficiency, lending a futuristic, industrial attitude reminiscent of display lettering used in sci-fi interfaces and arcade-era graphics.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a consistent faceted construction, turning traditional sans shapes into planar, cut-corner forms. Its letterforms emphasize strong silhouettes and a modular, engineered feel aimed at attention-grabbing titles and thematic, tech-forward graphics.
Distinctive silhouettes come from aggressive corner chamfers and squared interior shapes, which stay consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase largely mirrors the uppercase construction, prioritizing uniform geometry over handwritten cues, which can increase visual impact but reduce softness at smaller sizes.
