Sans Faceted Misa 6 is a bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Marca' by ArimaType and 'Beachwood' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, monolinear sans with sharply cut, faceted corners that turn bowls and curves into planar, octagonal forms. Strokes are heavy and consistent, with square terminals and clipped joins that keep counters compact and vertical emphasis strong. The lowercase is tall and sturdy with short ascenders and minimal curvature; round letters like o/c/e read as chamfered rectangles, while diagonals in v/w/x are straight, taut, and clean. Numerals follow the same chamfered logic, producing uniform, sign-like silhouettes and tight internal apertures.
Best suited to display settings where its angular facets and condensed stance can carry impact—headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and short callouts. It also works well for wayfinding-style signage or product labeling where a rigid, industrial voice is desirable, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the faceting reads crisply.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian, with an engineered, machine-made feel. Its angular geometry suggests sport and equipment markings while also evoking a retro digital/arcade or industrial labeling aesthetic. The condensed proportions add urgency and punch, making the voice feel direct, no-nonsense, and slightly aggressive.
The design appears intended to translate a rigid, polygonal construction into a practical sans for attention-grabbing typography. By replacing curves with consistent chamfers and maintaining strong vertical structure, it aims for a compact, high-impact texture that feels engineered and emblematic.
Distinctive chamfers appear consistently at corners, creating a coherent faceted texture across the alphabet. The forms favor straight segments over smooth arcs, and punctuation (such as the period) is rendered with the same solid, geometric weight, reinforcing a unified, stenciled-signage rhythm in text.
