Sans Faceted Egky 1 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Mako' by Deltatype, 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype, and '946 Latin' by Roman Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, slanted display sans built from sharp facets and chamfered corners, replacing most curves with planar cuts. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal contrast, and terminals tend to end in clipped, wedge-like shapes that create a rugged, mechanical silhouette. Counters are tight and polygonal, with many letters showing notched joins and beveled edges that emphasize a cut-metal rhythm. Overall spacing feels compact and punchy, with lively silhouettes that read best at larger sizes.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, sports or esports branding, event graphics, and bold packaging where impact matters more than long-form readability. It also works well for logos, badges, and punchy UI labels that benefit from a fast, aggressive slant.
The typeface projects a forceful, action-oriented tone—part sports headline, part industrial stencil—conveying speed, impact, and grit. Its faceted construction and pronounced slant give it a dynamic, assertive voice that feels competitive and high-energy.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, machined aesthetic into a compact, high-impact lettering style. By using consistent bevels and faceted contours, it aims to deliver strong presence and motion cues while maintaining a cohesive, industrial visual system across letters and figures.
The angular detailing produces distinctive shapes in both caps and lowercase, with a consistent language of bevels and notches across the alphabet and numerals. The strong, dark color and tight apertures can reduce clarity at small sizes, but add character and punch in short bursts of text.
