Sans Faceted Anke 3 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Glober' by Fontfabric, 'Whitney' by Hoefler & Co., 'EquipCondensed' by Hoftype, 'Interval Sans Pro' by Mostardesign, and 'Werk' by Wilton Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, angular display sans built from crisp planar facets that substitute for curves, producing a cut-paper or chiseled silhouette. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and corners are sharply broken into short straight segments rather than rounded joins. Proportions feel compact and sturdy, with simplified counters and occasional asymmetries that create a hand-cut rhythm. The lowercase follows the same geometry with sturdy stems and small apertures, while numerals are bold and block-like with polygonal bowls.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, event promotions, packaging callouts, and brand marks where its jagged texture can read as intentional character. It works especially well when set large, where the faceting and quirky rhythm remain clear and contribute to the overall graphic presence.
The overall tone is playful and unruly, with a slightly rough, DIY energy. Its faceted construction and irregular rhythm suggest a bold, attention-grabbing voice that leans more expressive than refined, evoking handmade signage and graphic cutout lettering.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, handmade-feeling display voice by translating conventional sans forms into a faceted, polygonal construction. The aim seems to be strong visual personality and texture, prioritizing punchy recognition over smooth neutrality.
Because many curved forms are rendered as multi-sided shapes, internal spaces can tighten in smaller sizes, especially in letters with enclosed counters. The distinctive polygonal ‘O’-like forms and jagged diagonals give the design a strong texture that becomes a prominent pattern in longer lines of text.
