Sans Faceted Ablog 9 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Portlin' by Designova, 'Miguel De Northern' by Graphicxell, 'Posterman' by Mans Greback, and 'Merchanto' by Type Juice (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with planar facets. The letterforms are tall and narrow with a tight internal geometry: counters are squarish and often chamfered, and terminals finish in hard, angled cuts. Strokes stay largely uniform in thickness, producing a dense, poster-like color with strong vertical emphasis and crisp, mechanical rhythm. Numerals follow the same octagonal/trimmed construction, keeping widths compact and silhouettes highly regular.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports and team branding, apparel graphics, badges, and bold packaging. It can also work for signage-style applications where a compact footprint and hard-edged clarity are desirable, while extended body text will tend to feel heavy and visually dense.
The overall tone feels forceful and utilitarian, with an athletic scoreboard and industrial signage energy. Its sharp facets and compressed stance read as bold, no-nonsense, and slightly retro, evoking competition, speed, and engineered precision.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint, using faceted construction to suggest toughness and technical precision. Its consistent angular logic supports logo-like wordmarks and emphatic titling where a strong, uniform texture and sharp geometry are key.
Because the design relies on small chamfers and tight counters, it benefits from moderate-to-large sizes where the faceting and interior shapes stay clearly articulated. The uppercase and numerals feel especially emblematic, while lowercase retains the same rigid, constructed logic for cohesive mixed-case settings.
