Sans Faceted Mypa 11 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Forza' by Hoefler & Co., 'Eurostile Next' and 'Eurostile Next Paneuropean' by Linotype, 'Absalon' by Michael Nordstrom Kjaer, 'Moire' by Microsoft Corporation, and 'Kairos Sans' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with sharply chamfered corners and faceted, polygonal counters that replace round curves. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness and terminate in straight cuts, giving letters an octagonal, engineered silhouette. The set mixes squared bowls and clipped diagonals, with compact apertures and a tight, sturdy rhythm that reads cleanly at display sizes. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with boxy forms and clipped joints that keep the overall texture dense and uniform.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, high-impact wordshape is desired. It works especially well for sports identities, team apparel, product marks, and bold signage that benefits from an angular, engineered aesthetic.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a punchy presence that feels athletic and equipment-like. Its angular geometry suggests toughness and precision, leaning toward a retro scoreboard or industrial labeling mood rather than a soft, conversational voice.
The design appears intended to translate a tough, geometric, cut-corner vocabulary across the full alphanumeric set, prioritizing impact and uniformity over softness. By turning curves into planar facets and keeping stroke weight steady, it aims for a durable, contemporary display voice with a retro-industrial edge.
Faceting is applied consistently across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive “machined” look. The lowercase retains simple, sturdy construction with minimal modulation, and the design’s tight openings can make internal spaces feel compact in longer text.
