Sans Faceted Asbe 10 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Block Capitals' by K-Type, 'New York Line' by Kustomtype, 'Horesport' by Mightyfire, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, and 'Monbloc' by Rui Nogueira (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, compact sans with squared proportions and faceted corners that replace curves with clipped, planar cuts. Strokes are consistently thick, producing dense counters and a strong, poster-like color on the page. The geometry favors straight segments, 45° chamfers, and flattened terminals; round letters (O, C, G, Q) read as octagonal forms, and diagonals in A, V, W, X are steep and tightly fitted. Lowercase follows the same constructed logic, with single-storey shapes and a simplified, sturdy rhythm that stays legible despite tight internal spaces.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where its faceted construction can be appreciated. It also fits sports and esports branding, game titles, and interface labels that benefit from a tough, technical tone. For longer passages, generous size and spacing help preserve clarity.
The overall tone is bold and mechanical, with a distinctly engineered feel. Its chamfered, polygonal construction suggests tech interfaces, industrial labeling, and arcade-era display lettering. The voice is confident and no-nonsense, leaning more toward impact and attitude than softness or warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence through compact, angular construction, using chamfered corners and polygonal “curves” to create a rugged, manufactured aesthetic. It prioritizes visual punch and a cohesive geometric system across letters and numerals.
Numerals are blocky and highly geometric, matching the uppercase with clipped corners and compact bowls. Punctuation and the ampersand maintain the same hard-edged vocabulary, helping mixed-case text keep a uniform, built-from-parts consistency. At smaller sizes the dense counters can darken quickly, while at larger sizes the faceting becomes a defining feature.
