Sans Faceted Niba 6 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Cybersport' by Anton Kokoshka, 'Eurostile Next' and 'Eurostile Next Paneuropean' by Linotype, and 'Fixture' by Sudtipos (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, angular sans with sharply chamfered corners and planar facets that replace most curves. Strokes are heavy and consistently weighted, with squared terminals and small diagonal cuts creating an octagonal rhythm in bowls and counters (notably in C, G, O, 0, and 8). Proportions are practical and slightly condensed in feel, with tight apertures and sturdy verticals that keep word shapes dense and punchy. The lowercase follows the same faceted logic, with single-story a and g, a narrow i/j with square dots, and utilitarian numerals built from straight segments and clipped corners.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its corner-cut geometry can be appreciated: headlines, posters, sports and team-style branding, product packaging, and wayfinding or industrial-themed signage. It can work for brief UI labels or technical callouts when a rugged, geometric voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and engineered—evoking stenciled signage, scoreboards, and machined surfaces. Its crisp geometry reads as disciplined and functional rather than friendly, with a subtle retro-tech flavor driven by the repeated chamfer motif.
The design appears aimed at delivering a robust, high-impact sans that feels machined and contemporary, using consistent chamfers to create a distinctive geometric identity while maintaining straightforward readability for display typography.
The faceting is applied systematically across the set, giving consistent corner behavior and counter shapes at display sizes. In longer lines, the dense texture and tight internal spaces create strong color and impact, while the squared punctuation and clipped joins reinforce the mechanical character.
