Sans Faceted Afbu 2 is a very bold, narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Ft Zeux' by Fateh.Lab, 'Behover' by Martype co, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, 'Alma Mater' and 'Oscar Bravo' by Studio K, and 'Emmentaler' by Umka Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy all-caps-forward sans with crisp, faceted corners that replace curves with clipped, planar cuts. Strokes are consistently thick and largely uniform, producing dense, blocky letterforms with a squared, slightly octagonal silhouette. Counters are tight and rectilinear, apertures are small, and terminals end in sharp chamfers that create a rhythmic, machined texture across lines of text. Numerals follow the same cut-corner construction, reading like sturdy, sign-ready blocks.
Best suited to short display settings where its dense weight and faceted geometry can read clearly and contribute texture—headlines, event posters, team or gym branding, packaging fronts, and bold UI labels. It can also work for emblem-style wordmarks and numbers on merchandise where an industrial, cut-metal feel is desirable.
The overall tone feels industrial and tough, with a sporty, arcade-like punch that suggests durability and impact. Its sharp facets and condensed stance give it a no-nonsense, engineered character suited to attention-grabbing statements.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact in a compact width while maintaining a consistent, geometric construction. Its chamfered detailing suggests an intent to evoke engineered signage and retro game or sports aesthetics through hard edges and simplified counters.
Uppercase forms dominate the personality, while lowercase retains the same angular construction, making mixed-case settings look deliberately uniform and graphic. The faceting produces strong repetition and patterning at display sizes, but the tight counters can darken quickly in small text.
