Sans Faceted Sylo 2 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'AG Royal' by Berthold, 'FF Infra' by FontFont, 'Bari Sans' by JCFonts, 'MVB Embarcadero' by MVB, and 'Touvlo' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, angular display sans built from straight strokes and chamfered corners that replace curves with planar facets. The geometry leans toward octagonal forms—especially in round letters—creating tight, compact counters and crisp internal notches. Stroke endings are clean and squared, and the overall rhythm is dense and sturdy, with consistent edge angles that give the alphabet a mechanically cut, hard-surface feel. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, reading clearly with strong silhouettes at large sizes.
Best suited to short, bold statements such as headlines, posters, sports and team identities, labels, and punchy packaging. It also works for wayfinding or signage where an angular, hard-edged voice is desired, and for game or event graphics that benefit from a blocky, faceted silhouette.
The font conveys an assertive, high-impact tone with sporty and industrial overtones. Its sharp facets and compressed apertures suggest strength and immediacy, evoking arcade, team, or equipment-marking aesthetics rather than softness or elegance.
The design appears intended to translate a sturdy sans foundation into a faceted, chiseled display style that stays highly legible at larger sizes. Its consistent chamfer system and octagonal rounding suggest a focus on a distinctive, branded texture that remains systematic across letters and numerals.
In text settings the angular joins and small openings can visually fill in, so it benefits from generous tracking and line spacing. Mixed-case has a deliberately chunky, carved look, with lowercase forms that maintain the same rigid, faceted logic as the capitals.
