Sans Faceted Nypy 4 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Neumatic Gothic' and 'Neumatic Gothic Round' by Arkitype, 'Moldin' by Azzam Ridhamalik, 'Schmalfette CP' by CounterPoint Type Studio, 'Cyclone' by Hoefler & Co., 'Daily Tabloid JNL' and 'Ingomar JNL' by Jeff Levine, and 'Industrial Gothic' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, heavy sans with sharp, planar facets replacing most curves. Strokes are uniformly thick with squared terminals and frequent chamfered corners, giving counters and bowls a clipped, polygonal feel (notably in C, G, O, and S). The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with compact apertures, short crossbars, and sturdy, rectangular proportions. Numerals and caps share the same chiseled, cut-corner construction, producing a consistent, sign-like texture in lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact typography such as posters, headlines, sports branding, and bold packaging. Its condensed build helps fit long words into narrow spaces while maintaining a strong silhouette. It can also work for logos and wordmarks where a hard-edged, industrial presence is desired, but it is less appropriate for long-form reading at small sizes.
The font communicates a tough, utilitarian confidence with a sporty, poster-driven edge. Its faceted geometry suggests engineered metal, stamped lettering, or bold athletic branding, producing a direct and commanding voice. The tone reads more assertive than friendly, with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor.
Designed to deliver maximum punch in a compact width, using consistent faceting to create a chiseled, engineered look. The construction favors strong silhouettes and repeatable angular cues so the font reads as cohesive, forceful, and visually distinctive in display settings.
Lowercase forms largely echo the cap structure, keeping the texture uniform in mixed-case settings. The faceting is applied systematically across the set, so even rounded glyphs maintain crisp angles and a mechanical regularity. Spacing appears tuned for impact, creating dense word shapes that feel stable in headlines.
