Sans Faceted Asba 7 is a very bold, normal width, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Miura' by DSType; 'Mercurial', 'Midsole', and 'Tradesman' by Grype; 'Herchey' by Ilham Herry; 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type; 'Nulato' by Stefan Stoychev; 'Hockeynight Sans' by XTOPH; and 'Probeta' by deFharo (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, angular display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with faceted joins and octagonal-like counters. Stems are uniform in thickness with crisp terminals, producing a hard-edged, machined texture. The proportions feel sturdy and compact with tall lowercase letters and tight interior spaces; round characters like O/C/G are rendered as polygonal forms for consistent rhythm. Numerals echo the same chamfered construction, giving the set a cohesive, sign-like presence.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, apparel graphics, sports and esports branding, and impactful packaging where its angular construction can be appreciated. It also works well for short UI labels, badges, and titling in tech or game contexts, but is less appropriate for long-form reading due to its dense texture.
The overall tone is assertive and rugged, evoking varsity lettering, industrial stenciling, and retro arcade or sci‑fi titling. Its sharp facets and dense color create a purposeful, no-nonsense voice that reads as energetic and competitive rather than friendly or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a faceted, geometric construction—translating traditionally curved forms into sharp planar shapes for a strong, contemporary display voice.
At larger sizes the faceting becomes a defining graphic feature, while at smaller sizes the tight counters and heavy weight can make interior shapes close up, especially in dense text. The mix of squared geometry and diagonal chamfers creates a distinctive rhythm that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
