Sans Faceted Tyba 8 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Alilato Arabic' by Alilato, 'Possible' by K-Type, 'Camphor' by Monotype, 'Arazatí' by TipoType, and 'Arazatí' by Underground (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with a distinctly faceted construction: curves are replaced by short straight segments and chamfered corners, producing octagonal bowls and clipped terminals. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with compact counters and squared-off joins that keep the silhouette dense and high-impact. The lowercase is simplified and utilitarian, pairing straight stems with polygonal rounds (notably in o/c/e), while figures follow the same cut-corner logic for a consistent, machined rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where the faceted silhouettes can be appreciated at display sizes. It also fits packaging, labels, and wayfinding-style graphics that benefit from a robust, industrial voice. For extended reading, it will typically work better in short bursts than in dense body copy due to its compact internal spaces.
The overall tone is mechanical and engineered, suggesting cut metal, stenciled labeling, or hard-edged digital display aesthetics. Its crisp facets and solid mass read as assertive and practical, with a retro-industrial edge that feels at home in technical or utilitarian contexts.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a cut-and-chamfered system, preserving clarity while emphasizing a manufactured, planar look. By substituting smooth curves with straight facets, it aims for a distinctive, durable personality that remains legible and consistent across letters and numerals.
The faceting creates strong, memorable outlines at large sizes, while the tight apertures and compact counters make the texture heavier in paragraphs. The consistent chamfers across rounds and terminals unify the set and reinforce the constructed, tool-like character.
