Sans Faceted Abbok 9 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Campione Neue' by BoxTube Labs, 'Mercurial' by Grype, 'Obvia Condensed' by Typefolio, and 'Probeta' by deFharo (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, condensed display sans built from straight strokes and sharp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar facets throughout. Counters are compact and often squared-off, with a strong vertical emphasis and crisp terminals that create a rhythmic, stencil-like solidity without actual breaks. The uppercase forms read boxy and engineered, while the lowercase keeps the same faceted logic with sturdy stems and simplified bowls; the numerals follow the same angular construction for a consistent, modular texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, badges, and logo wordmarks where a compact footprint and strong presence are needed. It also fits packaging, labels, and UI/overlay moments that benefit from a tough, technical voice, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the faceting reads clearly.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, with a rugged, no-nonsense presence that feels engineered rather than handwritten. Its faceted geometry suggests a futuristic or tactical mood, while the condensed, blocky color also evokes athletic lettering and industrial labeling.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed width while maintaining a consistent faceted construction across the set. By systematically chamfering corners and simplifying curves into straight planes, it aims for a bold, engineered aesthetic that stays cohesive across letters and figures.
The face maintains a consistent system of angled cuts on corners and joins, giving it a cohesive ‘machined’ look at both headline and short-text sizes. In longer samples it produces a dense, high-impact texture, with distinctive angular silhouettes on key letters and numerals that help maintain character even in tight spacing.
