Sans Faceted Abbik 1 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Perihelion BB' by Blambot, 'Panton' by Fontfabric, 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, monoline sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with consistent chamfers that create an octagonal, faceted geometry. Counters are mostly rectangular or polygonal, with uniform stroke thickness and tight, efficient spacing that forms a compact texture in text. Uppercase forms are wide and stable with flat terminals; lowercase echoes the same construction, with simplified bowls and sharp joins that keep the rhythm mechanical and regular. Numerals follow the same planed-corner logic, reading clearly with strong silhouettes and minimal modulation.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where its faceted silhouettes can read at a glance—headlines, posters, identity marks, and sports or team-inspired branding. It also fits UI titles, labeling, and packaging that benefits from an industrial or technical voice; for long passages, its dense, blocky texture is more effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is tough and engineered, evoking industrial labeling, athletic jersey lettering, and sci‑fi interface typography. Its sharp facets and dense color feel assertive and functional rather than friendly or delicate, projecting a no-nonsense, technical energy.
The design appears intended to translate a planar, beveled aesthetic into a practical sans alphabet, delivering strong legibility while maintaining a distinctive faceted motif. It prioritizes consistency and robustness, aiming for a constructed, contemporary display voice that still holds together in word shapes.
The consistent chamfer size across corners creates a strong system and a recognizable “cut metal” look. Diagonals (notably in A, K, V, W, X, Y) appear sturdy and slightly squared at joins, reinforcing the constructed, machined character.
