Sans Faceted Akfu 3 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Sandalwood JNL' by Jeff Levine, 'Barned' by Marvadesign, and 'Deciso' by Stefano Giliberti (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with faceted construction: curves are consistently replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, producing octagonal counters and clipped terminals. Strokes read largely monoline, with crisp right angles and diagonal joins that create a machined, planar feel. The uppercase set is wide and sturdy, while the lowercase maintains the same angular vocabulary with squared bowls and cut-in joints. Numerals follow the same clipped geometry, with strong, block-like silhouettes and clear interior cutouts.
Best suited to display settings where its faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, logos, posters, packaging callouts, and UI elements for games or sci‑fi/tech themes. It works well for short-to-medium runs of text when a strong, mechanical voice is desired, and for numerals in scoreboards, labels, or product markings.
The overall tone is assertive and engineered, evoking futuristic interfaces, arcade and sports aesthetics, and industrial labeling. Its sharp facets and compact negative spaces give it a tactical, high-impact presence suited to energetic, performance-oriented branding.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, hard-surface style, prioritizing impact and a coherent angular motif across letters and numerals. By systematically clipping curves into planar segments, it aims to deliver a modern, engineered character that reads confidently in bold display use.
Large sizes emphasize the distinctive chamfers and octagonal counters, while smaller sizes may feel dense where interior apertures tighten. The design’s rhythm is driven by repeated corner cuts and consistent straight-edge segmentation across rounds, giving text a unified, modular texture.
