Sans Faceted Siwa 9 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Fact' by ParaType, 'Neue Reman Gt' by Propertype, 'URW Grotesk' by URW Type Foundry, and 'Neosande' and 'Nova Pro' by XdCreative (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, forward-leaning sans built from angular planes rather than continuous curves. Bowls and rounds are cut into faceted octagonal shapes, with crisp corners and chamfer-like joins that create a machined, segmented rhythm. Strokes stay broadly consistent, terminals are mostly blunt and straight, and counters tend toward polygonal openings; the overall color is dense and emphatic, with a slightly condensed feel in several letters and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact text where the angular construction can be appreciated—headlines, team or esports identities, product marks, and display typography on posters or packaging. It can also work in UI labels or signage when a bold, technical aesthetic is desired, while longer passages may feel visually insistent due to the dense weight and faceted detailing.
The faceted geometry and right-leaning stance give the type a fast, forceful tone—suggesting speed, impact, and engineered toughness. It reads as contemporary and performance-oriented, with an assertive voice that feels at home in competitive or technical settings.
The design appears intended to merge a bold, slanted display sans with a carved, geometric surface treatment, replacing curves with planar facets to imply speed, strength, and industrial precision. The consistent chiseled language across letters and figures suggests a focus on branding and attention-grabbing display use.
Distinctive polygonal forms show up strongly in characters like O/Q/0 and the curved-side letters (C/G/S), where the facets act like intentional cutaways. The numerals echo the same planar logic, reinforcing consistency across the set and helping the design keep a cohesive, logo-ready silhouette.
