Sans Faceted Etfo 8 is a bold, normal width, monoline, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Cybersport' by Anton Kokoshka and 'Air Corps JNL' by Jeff Levine (names referenced only for comparison).
Keywords: sports branding, gaming, posters, headlines, logos, sporty, futuristic, technical, aggressive, energetic, impact, speed, precision, modernity, edge, angular, chamfered, faceted, slanted, compact.
This typeface uses a strongly slanted, angular construction where curves are replaced by crisp planar facets and chamfered corners. Strokes remain consistently heavy, producing a dense, high-contrast silhouette against the page while keeping an even stroke color across words. Counters are tight and geometric (notably in O, D, P, and 8), and terminals tend to end with diagonal cuts that reinforce forward motion. The overall rhythm is compact and mechanical, with squared-off shapes and deliberate notches that read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited for display-driven work where impact and speed are priorities, such as sports identities, esports and gaming visuals, event posters, product packaging accents, and punchy editorial headlines. It can also work well for short UI labels or technical callouts when a futuristic, engineered feel is desired.
The overall tone feels fast, technical, and assertive, with a performance-oriented look reminiscent of racing graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Its faceted geometry and forward slant create a sense of motion and urgency, giving headlines a sharp, competitive edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, forward-leaning voice using faceted geometry to suggest precision and momentum. By minimizing true curves and emphasizing chamfered joins, it aims for a distinctive, modern display presence that remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Uppercase forms appear more rigid and engineered, while lowercase keeps the same angular logic for a cohesive system. Numerals echo the same faceted language with cut corners and squared curves, helping the font maintain a consistent, hard-edged texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
