Sans Faceted Tysa 8 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Geogrotesque Expanded Series' and 'Geogrotesque Sharp' by Emtype Foundry, 'Oxima' by Graviton, and 'Celdum' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, forward-leaning sans with faceted construction: curves are largely replaced by straight segments and clipped corners, producing octagonal counters and sharp terminals. Strokes stay consistently thick with minimal modulation, and joins are clean and geometric, giving letters a machined, cut-from-plate look. Proportions are compact and sturdy, with squared bowls and broad shoulders; apertures are relatively tight, emphasizing density and impact. Numerals follow the same angular logic, with chamfered corners and simplified, sturdy forms that align visually with the caps.
Best suited to display settings where punch and personality matter: headlines, posters, esports and sports identity work, product marks, and high-impact packaging. It also fits interface labels or HUD-style graphics when a technical, angular voice is desired, while longer paragraphs may benefit from larger sizes and generous spacing due to the compact apertures.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, evoking motorsport graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and rugged equipment labeling. Its faceted silhouettes and slanted stance suggest motion and precision, while the dense black shapes communicate strength and authority.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, motion-driven voice with a geometric, faceted silhouette that reads as engineered and modern. By standardizing chamfered corners and planar cuts across glyphs, it aims to create a recognizable texture that stays consistent from caps to lowercase and figures.
The italic slant is integrated into the letter structure rather than simply skewed, preserving the crisp facet rhythm across the alphabet. The consistent corner clipping creates a cohesive texture in text, where repeated diagonals and flat cuts form a distinctive, engineered pattern.
