Sans Faceted Beru 4 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Mako' by Deltatype, 'Halagar' by Letteralle, 'Reznik' by The Northern Block, 'Palestina' by Tipo, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built sans with faceted, chamfered corners that replace curves with straight, planar cuts. Counters are tight and often squared-off, producing compact interior spaces and a dense texture in words. The uppercase is broad and emphatic with a collegiate, cut-corner construction, while the lowercase keeps the same angular logic and a tall, sturdy presence. Numerals and punctuation follow the same octagonal rhythm, creating a consistent, impact-first silhouette.
Best suited to display typography where mass and shape do the talking: headlines, posters, athletic identities, event graphics, and bold packaging panels. It can also work for short labels or navigation in environments that benefit from strong, sign-like letterforms, but is less comfortable for long text due to its dense counters and heavy texture.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a sporty, badge-like energy. Its sharp cuts and compact counters suggest toughness and durability, leaning toward retro athletic and industrial signage associations rather than refinement.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a consistent faceted motif, evoking cut metal, athletic lettering, and rugged signage. The emphasis is on strong silhouettes, repeatable corner geometry, and immediate recognition at display sizes.
The design relies on repeated diagonal corner cuts and flat terminals to create a uniform facet language across the set. The dense color and tight apertures can reduce small-size clarity, but they amplify presence and cohesion in larger settings.
