Sans Faceted Epgi 3 is a bold, normal width, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Acumin' by Adobe, 'Innova' by Durotype, 'EB Corp' by Eko Bimantara, and 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, angular sans with planar, chamfered corners that replace curves with straight cuts, creating octagonal bowls in letters like O/Q and similarly faceted counters throughout. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with squarish terminals and tight interior apertures that emphasize a compact, blocky silhouette. Uppercase forms feel wide and assertive, while the lowercase mixes simplified geometric shapes with a few distinctive constructions (notably the single-storey a and the sharply notched, geometric bowls). Numerals follow the same cut-corner logic, producing sturdy, sign-like figures with strong vertical emphasis.
Best suited for display settings where its faceted construction and mass can carry impact: posters, sports or event branding, logo marks, apparel graphics, and bold packaging panels. It also works well for short UI labels or badges when a rugged, industrial tone is desired and sizes are generous.
The overall tone is tough and purposeful, balancing a sporty, collegiate energy with an industrial, machined feel. The chipped/eroded texture visible in the samples adds a worn, gritty edge that reads as rugged and streetwise rather than pristine.
The design appears intended to translate carved or machined letterforms into a contemporary display sans, using consistent chamfers to suggest hard materials and engineered surfaces. The distressed finish in the sample implies an emphasis on texture and attitude, aiming for instant visual punch over quiet readability.
The consistent corner chamfers and straight-line geometry create a strong rhythmic pattern in headlines, but the small counters and dense joins can make extended text feel heavy at smaller sizes. The distressed artifacts appear baked into the shown rendering, giving the face a pre-weathered, printed-on-rough-surface character.
