Sans Faceted Abmuz 1 is a bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Noteworthy' by Gerald Gallo, 'EFCO Growers' by Ilham Herry, 'Magr' by Locomotype, 'Propane' by SparkyType, and 'Yoshida Soft' by TypeUnion (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans with faceted construction: curved forms are replaced by straight segments and clipped corners, producing octagonal counters and hard terminals throughout. Strokes are uniform and square-ended, with tight apertures and compact internal spaces that emphasize mass and solidity. The lowercase follows the same engineered logic, mixing simplified bowls and straight-sided arches; verticals are dominant and joins are crisp, giving a slightly modular rhythm. Numerals echo the same chamfered geometry, with blocky silhouettes and consistent corner cuts that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, headlines, sports and team branding, packaging callouts, and wayfinding where bold, angular forms help text stand out. It can also work for UI labels or section headers when a technical, rugged voice is desired and sizes are large enough to preserve the faceted detailing.
The faceted, chamfered silhouettes project an industrial, utilitarian tone with a sporty edge, reminiscent of equipment labeling, uniforms, and digital-era display lettering. Its assertive presence reads confident and no-nonsense, with a subtle retro-game/arcade flavor due to the pixel-adjacent angularity.
The letterforms appear intended to translate a sturdy sans into a chiseled, planar vocabulary, replacing curves with consistent chamfers to create a cohesive, mechanical aesthetic. The goal seems to be high visual impact and a distinctive, engineered texture that remains readable while signaling toughness and precision.
The repeated corner-clipping creates strong texture in lines of text, with pronounced dark color and sharp internal angles that can close up at smaller sizes. The design feels optimized for impact and legibility at display sizes where the facets read as intentional detailing rather than noise.
