Sans Faceted Afgy 10 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Libertad Mono' by ATK Studio, 'Monorama' by Indian Type Foundry, and 'Super Duty' by Typeco (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, block-built sans with faceted, chamfered corners that replace most curves with short angled planes. Strokes are consistently heavy and largely monoline, producing crisp, high-contrast silhouettes with rectangular counters and clipped terminals. Uppercase letters feel relatively narrow and tall, while lowercase introduces a slightly friendlier rhythm through simpler shapes and occasional straight-sided bowls. Numerals follow the same octagonal construction, with an angled slash in the zero and generally squared, segmented forms throughout.
Best suited for short, prominent text such as posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging callouts, and wayfinding or labeling where a sturdy, engineered look is desired. It also works well for sports-themed graphics and retro-tech interfaces where angular, stencil-like geometry supports the concept.
The overall tone is utilitarian and punchy, evoking athletic numbering, industrial labeling, and early digital/arcade aesthetics. Its angular geometry reads as disciplined and mechanical, with a confident, no-nonsense presence that favors impact over delicacy.
The design appears intended to translate a strict, geometric construction into a bold display voice by standardizing chamfers and flattening curves into planar facets. This yields a strong, reproducible look that emphasizes structure and rhythm, making it effective for attention-grabbing typography with a technical edge.
Corner treatments are highly consistent across the set, giving the face a cohesive, modular feel. The design stays readable at display sizes, where the small facets and clipped joins become a defining texture rather than visual noise.
