Sans Faceted Asgi 4 is a very bold, normal width, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'PODIUM Sharp' by Machalski, 'Navine' by OneSevenPointFive, 'Hype vol 2' by Positype, and 'Reznik' by The Northern Block (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with sharply faceted corners and clipped curves that read as octagonal rather than round. Strokes are broadly even and orthogonal, with frequent chamfers that create a consistent planar rhythm across bowls and terminals. Counters are relatively tight and often rectangularized, producing dense silhouettes and strong figure/ground shapes at display sizes. The lowercase follows the same engineered geometry, with squared shoulders and angled cuts that keep forms rigid and compact.
Best suited to headlines, signage, and bold short-form copy where its faceted corners and dense weight can carry from a distance. It fits sports and team branding, apparel graphics, energetic poster work, and packaging that benefits from a tough, engineered look. For longer passages, it will be more effective used sparingly as an accent or display layer.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with a sporty, uniform-like presence. Its faceted construction and dense weight convey durability and impact, leaning toward an industrial, utility-first personality with a subtle retro scoreboard/poster feel.
The design appears intended to translate traditional block lettering into a crisp, planar system, replacing curves with controlled chamfers for a rugged, reproducible look. It prioritizes impact and instant recognition, aiming for a uniform-ready aesthetic that remains consistent across letters and numerals.
The A–Z set maintains a uniform chamfer logic that helps cohesion, while diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y and the 7) sharpen the sense of motion. Numerals are similarly cut and poster-ready, with the 0 and 8 emphasizing the octagonal counter shapes.
