Sans Faceted Buka 7 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Ft Zeux' by Fateh.Lab, 'Maken' by Graphicxell, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, 'Goodland' by Swell Type, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built display face with straight sides and sharp chamfered corners that carve curves into planar facets. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and counters are compact and mostly rectangular, keeping the silhouette dense and punchy. The geometry leans on octagonal shapes (notably in O/C/G/0 and the bowls), while joins and terminals stay crisp and squared, producing a rigid rhythm and strong vertical emphasis across text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings like headlines, posters, team or event branding, packaging callouts, and game/arcade-style UI labels. It performs well when given generous size and a bit of tracking, where the faceted silhouettes and compact counters remain clearly legible.
The overall tone is tough and mechanical, with a sporty, arena-signage energy. Its faceted construction also suggests a digital/arcade sensibility, giving lines of text a bold, assertive presence that feels built for impact rather than subtlety.
The design appears intended to replace traditional curves with hard-edged planes, creating a sturdy, engineered look that holds up in bold display contexts. The consistent chamfering and compact interior spaces prioritize a strong, repeatable silhouette that reads quickly and feels durable.
Spacing appears tight by default, and the dense counters plus sharp facets can begin to merge at smaller sizes, especially in busy words and numerals. Uppercase forms read particularly strong and uniform, while the lowercase maintains the same geometric logic for consistent texture in mixed-case settings.
