Sans Faceted Kobi 5 is a regular weight, wide, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Tactic Round' and 'Tactic Sans' by Miller Type Foundry and 'Sweet Square' by Sweet (names referenced only for comparison).

A crisp sans with squared, faceted construction that replaces curves with chamfered corners and short diagonal cuts. Strokes are monolinear and firmly rectilinear, creating an octagonal rhythm in bowls and counters (notably in O/0 and rounded lowercase). Proportions read slightly expanded with a tall x-height, and the overall spacing feels open and deliberate, keeping shapes distinct in both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals echo the same planar geometry, with hard terminals and flattened curves.
Best suited to display settings where its faceted geometry can define the visual identity—headlines, logos, product branding, posters, and wayfinding/signage. It can work for short UI labels or technical graphics when a futuristic/industrial flavor is desired, but its distinctive cornering is most effective at medium to large sizes.
The faceted, chamfered forms give the type a technical, engineered tone—more like CNC-cut signage or sci‑fi interface lettering than a neutral UI sans. Its sharp geometry and modular rhythm suggest durability and precision, leaning toward a tactical, industrial mood.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans framework infused with a hard-edged, planar aesthetic—suggesting machined precision while keeping counters generous and forms simplified for quick recognition.
Diagonal joins are used sparingly but consistently to soften corners without introducing true curvature, which helps maintain clarity while preserving the angular identity. The lowercase stays highly legible through large counters and straightforward construction, and the overall texture remains even in longer text lines despite the strong geometric voice.
