Sans Faceted Afve 9 is a bold, narrow, medium contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Monorama' by Indian Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with angular, chamfered corners that turn curves into crisp facets. Strokes are largely uniform with squared terminals, producing a sturdy, modular rhythm; counters are simplified and often polygonal, and round letters read as octagons rather than circles. The design maintains tight spacing and disciplined proportions, with a tall lowercase structure and clear, straight-sided forms that stay consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where the angular texture can carry the voice—headlines, posters, logos, and bold branding. It also fits game interfaces, sci‑fi or industrial labeling, and packaging where a technical, cut-metal aesthetic is desirable.
The faceted construction and hard edges give the type a technological, engineered feel, reminiscent of digital hardware markings and arcade-era display lettering. It reads assertive and utilitarian, with a slightly retro-future tone that feels at home in synthetic or mechanical contexts.
The font appears designed to translate conventional sans letterforms into a planar, faceted geometry that stays legible while projecting a hard, technical character. The goal seems to be a consistent, system-like alphabet optimized for bold display use rather than subtle text setting.
Diagonals and notched joins are used to imply curvature and add visual bite, helping shapes like O, C, and S stay recognizably geometric. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic (including an octagonal 0), reinforcing a cohesive, signage-like system.
