Sans Faceted Anby 4 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Expedition' by Aerotype, 'Arame' by DMTR.ORG, 'Morgan' by Krafted, and 'Stallman' and 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface is built from straight strokes and hard corners, replacing curves with crisp chamfers and clipped terminals. Counters tend toward squared or octagonal forms, and many joins resolve into flat planar facets that create a consistent, machined geometry. The overall texture is dense and dark, with sturdy, even stroke presence and minimal contrast. Letterforms emphasize verticals and right angles, while diagonals appear as short, sharp cuts that keep shapes compact and stable.
Best suited for display typography where a strong, geometric voice is needed—headlines, branding marks, game/interface graphics, and bold packaging. It can also work for short labels and section headers in technical or sci‑fi themed layouts, where the faceted silhouettes remain recognizable at moderate sizes.
The faceted construction gives the font a technical, engineered tone that reads as futuristic and industrial. Its bold, block-like silhouettes feel assertive and game-like, suggesting digital interfaces, sci‑fi labeling, and high-impact display settings.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, planar aesthetic into a practical sans structure, prioritizing impact and a cohesive angular system over softness or calligraphic nuance. Its consistent chamfer language suggests a goal of creating a durable, machine-cut look that stays legible while projecting a distinctly futuristic character.
Uppercase forms are particularly rigid and modular, while lowercase maintains the same angular logic with simplified, sturdy bowls and apertures. Numerals follow the same clipped-corner motif for a cohesive alphanumeric set, producing a uniform, signage-like rhythm in all-caps and mixed-case text.
