Sans Faceted Afvi 1 is a bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height, monospaced font visually similar to 'Noplato' by Drizy Font, 'Cream Opera' by Factory738, and 'Cindie 2' by Lewis McGuffie Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, all-caps-forward display face built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with faceted, octagonal geometry. Strokes remain consistently heavy with minimal contrast, producing a sturdy, even color in text. Counters and bowls are tightened into polygonal shapes, and terminals end in flat cuts or small chamfers that create a crisp, machined rhythm. The lowercase echoes the uppercase structure with simplified, blocky forms and short extenders, while figures share the same cut-corner construction for a highly uniform set.
Well-suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, team or event branding, badges, and packaging where a tough, engineered look is desired. It can also work for labels, wayfinding-style graphics, and UI/overlay titling when a rigid, technical tone is appropriate.
The overall tone feels industrial and hard-edged, like stamped signage or machined lettering. Its faceted cuts give a rugged, performance-oriented character that reads as sporty and slightly retro, with a no-nonsense, utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted construction into a robust display alphabet that stays consistent across letters and numbers. By standardizing chamfers and eliminating curves, it aims for a strong, modular feel that evokes stamped, cut, or machined lettering while remaining highly legible at larger sizes.
Distinctive chamfers on joints and corners create a consistent “cut metal” texture across the alphabet, especially visible in round letters like C/G/O/Q and in the angular diagonals of K/V/W/X. The compact proportions and tight apertures emphasize impact over softness, helping the type keep a firm, poster-like presence even in multi-line settings.
