Sans Faceted Mibe 5 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'ATF Poster Gothic' by ATF Collection, 'Air Corps JNL' by Jeff Levine, 'Beachwood' by Swell Type, and 'Octin College' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes with pronounced chamfered corners that replace curves with planar facets. The letterforms lean toward octagonal silhouettes (notably in O, C, G, and the numerals), with consistent stroke weight and squared terminals that keep edges crisp. Counters are compact and often polygonal, and the uppercase set reads as tightly engineered with sturdy horizontals and simplified joins. Lowercase remains blocky and utilitarian, with single-storey forms and minimal contrast, producing a clean, hard-edged rhythm in text.
Best suited for display settings where the angular cuts can be appreciated: headlines, posters, team or athletic branding, product packaging, and UI elements for games or tech-themed interfaces. It can work for short text blocks when set with generous size and spacing to preserve interior clarity.
The overall tone is tough and mechanical, evoking industrial labeling, sports numbering, and retro-digital display aesthetics. Its faceted construction feels technical and assertive rather than friendly, projecting a controlled, engineered attitude.
The design appears intended to translate rounded forms into crisp, machinable geometry, delivering a strong sans voice with distinctive chamfered corners for impact and recognizability.
The faceting is systematic across rounds and diagonals, creating a consistent “cut metal” feel. At smaller sizes the tight apertures and squared details can visually thicken, while at larger sizes the corner cuts become a defining graphic feature.
