Sans Faceted Anwe 3 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Artegra Sans' by Artegra, 'Remoto' by JAM Type Design, 'Monni' by Matt Chansky, 'Breno' and 'Meccanica' by Monotype, and 'Hint' by ParaType (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with sharply chamfered corners and faceted curves that read as straight planar cuts rather than smooth arcs. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, producing compact counters and a solid silhouette. The geometry favors octagonal and trapezoidal forms (notably in round letters and numerals), with squared terminals and a slightly condensed interior space that boosts impact. Uppercase forms feel rigid and engineered, while the lowercase keeps the same angular construction, maintaining a uniform, mechanical rhythm across text.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display copy where its angular details can be appreciated. It works well for sports identities, team apparel, event posters, product packaging, and industrial or tech-themed branding that benefits from a bold, engineered voice.
The overall tone is tough, utilitarian, and energetic, with a clear sports/industrial flavor. Its faceted construction suggests machinery, equipment labeling, and scoreboard aesthetics, projecting confidence and momentum rather than softness or elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with an instantly recognizable faceted signature, translating familiar sans forms into hard-edged geometry for strong display presence. Its consistent chamfers and sturdy construction aim for legibility at a distance and a brandable, emblem-like character.
The cut-corner treatment is applied consistently, creating strong edge highlights and a distinctive “stenciled-by-facets” feel without actually breaking strokes. Counters in letters like a, e, o, and 8 become polygonal, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) read crisply with pronounced joins, emphasizing a rugged, fabricated look.
