Sans Faceted Urda 5 is a bold, very wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Durandal' by Aerotype and 'Gorus' by Smartfont (names referenced only for comparison).

A sharply angular sans with faceted, chamfered corners that replace curves with straight segments and clipped diagonals. Strokes are uniform and heavy, producing compact internal counters and a strongly silhouetted, stencil-like rhythm without true breaks. The design favors wide proportions and long horizontals, with mostly squared bowls and octagonal openings in characters like O/o and the numerals, creating a consistent, planar geometry across the set.
Best suited for short, prominent settings where the faceted construction can be appreciated—titles, branding, posters, and splash graphics. It also fits interface-style display work such as game UI headings, streamer overlays, and science-fiction themed packaging or event materials.
The overall tone reads futuristic and mechanical, like interface lettering or sci‑fi hardware markings. Its hard edges and compressed apertures give it a forceful, high-impact voice that feels engineered rather than humanist, leaning toward arcade and esports aesthetics.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke machined surfaces and digital display geometry by systematically chamfering corners and converting curves into planar facets. The intent is a cohesive, high-impact display face that communicates technology, speed, and controlled precision.
Distinctive diagonal terminals and notched joins add a sense of motion, while the reduced roundness and tight counters can make dense text feel darker at smaller sizes. In the sample text, the texture is strongly patterned, with repeated facets creating a cohesive “tech” cadence line to line.
