Sans Faceted Buhy 3 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Muller' and 'Muller Next' by Fontfabric, 'ITC Franklin' by ITC, 'American Auto' by Miller Type Foundry, 'Fact' by ParaType, and 'Core Sans N' and 'Core Sans NR' by S-Core (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-constructed sans with sharp chamfered corners and faceted curves that resolve into planar cuts rather than smooth arcs. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dense, high-impact silhouettes. Counters are compact and often squarish or octagonal, and many joins terminate in clipped angles that give letters a machined, stenciled-by-geometry feel. The lowercase follows the same block logic as the uppercase, with sturdy stems, short apertures, and a generally tight, compact rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logotypes, and bold labeling where the dense weight and faceted corners can read clearly at display sizes. It also fits athletic and industrial branding systems, as well as packaging and merchandise that benefits from a strong, geometric voice.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, with a confident, competitive energy. Its faceted geometry reads as mechanical and engineered, evoking sports branding, industrial labeling, and bold poster typography with a slightly retro, arcade-or-team-jersey attitude.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch through simplified, geometric construction and consistent chamfering, replacing curves with facets to create a rugged, engineered personality. The emphasis appears to be on memorable silhouettes and strong texture in large-scale text rather than delicate detail.
Diagonal strokes and terminals tend to end in flattened cuts, and rounded forms like O/Q/G are rendered as multi-sided shapes, reinforcing a consistent angular theme. The numerals match the letterforms in weight and corner treatment, maintaining a cohesive, hard-edged texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
