Sans Faceted Bupi 3 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'BR Nebula' and 'BR Shape' by Brink, 'Muller' by Fontfabric, 'Asket' by Glen Jan, 'Uniform Italic' by Miller Type Foundry, and 'Technica' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, slanted sans with chunky proportions and broad, compact counters. Curves are frequently resolved into blunt planar cuts, producing a subtly faceted silhouette even on otherwise rounded forms. Stroke endings are clean and mostly straight, with occasional angled terminals that add motion and a carved, poster-like texture. The overall rhythm is bold and steady, with simplified joins and generous interior shapes that keep letters from clogging at display sizes.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, and bold brand marks where its faceted shapes and forward motion can read clearly. It can work well on packaging and apparel graphics, especially in energetic or youth-oriented contexts, but is likely too dense and assertive for long body copy.
The faceted rounding and forward slant give the face an energetic, upbeat tone that reads as approachable rather than severe. Its chunky geometry suggests a retro headline sensibility with a sporty, comic-adjacent warmth, making it feel lively and attention-seeking in short bursts.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, energetic voice by combining a strong, chunky sans foundation with deliberate faceting and a consistent slant. The goal seems to be a distinctive, highly legible display style that feels dynamic and contemporary while nodding to retro signage and sporty lettering.
Numerals and caps share the same chunky construction, with easily recognizable silhouettes and a consistent use of angled cuts that replace smooth arcs. The texture is intentionally irregular in places (through facet angles and terminal shaping), which adds character and prevents the face from feeling purely geometric.
