Sans Faceted Rymu 1 is a very bold, very wide, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Geogrotesque Expanded Series' and 'Geogrotesque Sharp' by Emtype Foundry and '946 Latin' by Roman Type (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface is built from heavy, oblique strokes with sharp chamfers and faceted corners that replace most curves with straight segments. Counters are tight and often polygonal, and terminals frequently end in clipped, wedge-like cuts that create a mechanical, forward-leaning rhythm. The caps have a squared, armored presence (notably in forms like O/Q/D) while the lowercase echoes the same geometry with simplified, sturdy shapes and minimal modulation. Numerals match the hard-edged construction, with the 0 rendered as an octagonal ring and other figures using similarly cut, planar joins.
Best suited to large-scale applications where its angular facets and compact counters can read cleanly: headlines, posters, product marks, esports and sports branding, and game or tech interface titling. It also works well for short, high-impact phrases, labels, and badges where a sense of speed and toughness is desired.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and technical—more like engineered signage than neutral text. Its faceted construction and pronounced slant suggest motion and impact, lending a sporty, action-oriented feel with a distinctly sci‑fi/industrial edge.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, machined aesthetic into a bold oblique sans, prioritizing sharp silhouettes and a sense of momentum. By using chamfered corners and planar cuts throughout, it aims to communicate precision, durability, and forward motion in display typography.
The design’s crisp angles and clipped joints create strong silhouette recognition at display sizes, but the tight apertures and dense interior spaces can visually fill in as sizes get smaller. The oblique posture is integral to the letterforms rather than a simple slant, giving the set a consistent forward thrust across caps, lowercase, and figures.
