Sans Faceted Jino 2 is a regular weight, wide, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Gemsbuck Pro' by Studio Fat Cat and 'Beachwood' by Swell Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A geometric, monoline sans with corners consistently cut into small chamfers, creating an octagonal, faceted feel wherever curves would normally appear. Strokes stay even and low-contrast, with clean terminals and a largely squared construction for bowls and counters. Proportions read broad and steady, with generous x-height, open apertures, and a crisp, mechanical rhythm in text. Numerals and capitals follow the same planar logic, with rounded forms (O, C, G, S, 0, 8) rendered as straight segments with clipped corners.
Well-suited to interface typography, product labeling, and wayfinding systems where a clean sans is needed but a more technical voice is desired. It also performs effectively in headlines, logos, and sports/tech branding where the chamfered corners can become a recognizable motif.
The faceted geometry gives a technical, engineered tone that feels futuristic and equipment-like, while remaining approachable enough for contemporary UI and signage. Overall it suggests precision, modular construction, and a subtle retro-digital flavor without resorting to overt stencil or pixel cues.
The design appears intended to translate a neutral sans framework into a more characterful, modern-industrial style by replacing curves with planar facets and maintaining strict stroke consistency. It aims for strong legibility while adding a controlled, engineered edge for contemporary display and system use.
Diagonal joins (V, W, X, Y, K) are sharp and tidy, reinforcing a hard-edged silhouette. The lowercase maintains clarity at smaller sizes thanks to simple forms and consistent stroke behavior, while the chamfers add distinctive texture at display sizes.
