Sans Faceted Lyko 11 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Air Corps JNL' by Jeff Levine, 'Charles Wright' by K-Type, and 'Octin College' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, angular display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with chamfered, multi-faceted turns. The forms read as squared and octagonal, with frequent 45° cuts at terminals and inside corners that create a crisp, engineered rhythm. Counters are compact and often rectangular, with a generally uniform stroke thickness and a slightly condensed, vertical stance. Lowercase and numerals follow the same geometric logic, producing a cohesive, blocky texture that stays legible while emphasizing hard-edged structure.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, logos, packaging callouts, posters, and on-screen graphics. It can also work for gaming or software UI accents where a hard, geometric voice is desired, while extended body text may feel dense due to the compact counters and strong, blocky color.
The overall tone is assertive and technical, with a retro-digital edge reminiscent of arcade UI, industrial labeling, and sci‑fi interfaces. Its sharp corners and stencil-like facets convey precision and toughness more than warmth or elegance.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted construction into a practical display alphabet that remains readable while projecting a rugged, high-tech character. Its consistent chamfer system and squared proportions suggest a focus on modularity and a distinctive, interface-driven identity.
Diagonal construction is used sparingly and primarily as corner chamfers, keeping most strokes orthogonal for a modular feel. The faceting is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, so mixed-case settings retain a uniform, machined personality.
