Sans Faceted Miby 8 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'FF Sanuk' by FontFont, 'Darwin Pro' and 'Darwin Rounded' by Los Andes, 'PF Handbook Pro' by Parachute, and 'Fuse' and 'Fuse V.2' by W Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface is built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp, planar facets. Letters have a sturdy, geometric construction with squared terminals and consistent stroke weight, creating a compact, high-impact silhouette. Counters and bowls tend toward octagonal shapes, and joins are sharply resolved, giving the design a mechanical, cut-metal feel. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with clear, angular apertures and strong, stable forms.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, angular voice is desired. It works well for team or athletic graphics, industrial or tech-themed packaging, labels, and signage-style applications that benefit from a faceted, geometric texture.
The overall tone is tough and functional, evoking industrial signage, sports numbering, and engineered surfaces. Its sharp geometry reads as assertive and no-nonsense, with a hint of retro tech and arcade-era styling.
The design appears intended to translate a simple sans structure into a hard-edged, machined aesthetic by systematically chamfering curves and corners. The goal is immediate impact and recognizability, with letterforms that feel constructed rather than drawn.
The faceting is applied consistently across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing a disciplined rhythm in text. At larger sizes the beveled corners become a defining texture, while in smaller settings the heavy, angular details favor short bursts of copy over extended reading.
