Sans Faceted Akha 3 is a bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Expedition' by Aerotype, 'Arame' by DMTR.ORG, and 'Manufaktur' by Great Scott (names referenced only for comparison).

A blocky geometric sans built from straight strokes and sharp chamfered corners, replacing curves with faceted planes. Counters tend toward squared or octagonal forms, giving round letters an engineered, cut-metal silhouette. Strokes are heavy and consistent with minimal contrast, and the overall rhythm feels constructed from modular segments with frequent 45° cuts at joins and terminals. Spacing and widths vary by character, but the set maintains a uniform, mechanical texture across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display contexts where its angular construction can read clearly: brand marks, headlines, posters, packaging, event graphics, and game or app UI treatments. It also works for wayfinding or labels that benefit from a rigid, engineered voice, especially when set with generous tracking and ample size.
The faceted geometry and abrupt terminals convey a technical, industrial tone with a strong sci‑fi/arcade edge. Its sharp angles and solid mass feel assertive and utilitarian, suggesting machinery, armor, or digital hardware more than handwriting or editorial refinement.
The design appears intended to translate a mechanical, facet-cut motif into a readable sans, emphasizing sharp planar corners and modular construction. It prioritizes a distinctive, technological silhouette and a consistent geometric system across letters and figures.
At smaller sizes the enclosed counters and tight apertures can feel compact, while at display sizes the distinctive chamfers and segmented construction become the main visual signature. Numerals follow the same cut-corner logic, reinforcing a cohesive, device-like aesthetic.
