Sans Faceted Ufvu 1 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Empera' by BoxTube Labs, 'Corner Deli' by Fenotype, 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type, and 'Born Strong' by Rook Supply (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions and consistently thick strokes. Curves are largely replaced by chamfered corners and planar facets, producing an octagonal, cut-metal feel across rounds and joints. Counters are small and tightly enclosed, terminals tend to be blunt, and the overall rhythm is dense and assertive, with crisp angles used to articulate bowls, shoulders, and diagonals.
Best suited to display settings where strong presence and compact width are advantages—headlines, posters, branding marks, labels, and packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or wayfinding-style signage when a robust, technical look is desired, though the tight counters suggest avoiding very small text sizes.
The tone is tough and utilitarian, with a rugged, machine-made energy. Its faceted construction reads modern and technical, while the chunky mass and tight spacing add a sporty, no-nonsense attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using faceted geometry to evoke engineered surfaces and a contemporary industrial aesthetic. The consistent stroke weight and squared construction prioritize visual solidity and uniform texture over softness or calligraphic nuance.
Round glyphs like O/0 and C/G appear squared-off into multi-sided forms, which boosts consistency and impact but also reduces openness at smaller sizes. Numerals match the same angular logic, keeping a unified, hard-edged texture in headlines and short lines of text.
