Sans Faceted Befu 2 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'POLIGRA' by Machalski, 'Antry Sans' by Mans Greback, 'Tolyer' by Typesketchbook, and 'Marble' by URW Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

This typeface is built from sharp, planar facets that replace curves with angled cuts and flat edges, creating a chiseled, polygonal silhouette. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, with abrupt terminals and occasional notches that produce small interior counters and distinctive bite marks in letters like B, D, O, and Q. The uppercase feels more rigid and monolithic, while the lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic shapes and uneven joins, reinforcing a deliberately irregular rhythm. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across characters, giving text a hand-cut, display-driven texture rather than a strictly modular system.
This font is best suited to high-impact display settings such as posters, titles, logo wordmarks, packaging accents, and event or entertainment promotion where texture and attitude are desirable. It performs well at larger sizes where the angular cut-ins and tight counters can be appreciated without clogging.
The overall tone is bold and confrontational, with a graphic, cut-paper energy that reads as modern and slightly mischievous. Its faceted construction suggests a crafted, constructed aesthetic—part industrial, part comic—making lines of text feel animated and assertive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through a carved, faceted construction that stays consistently geometric while avoiding smooth curves. Its variable widths and intentionally uneven details suggest a focus on distinctive personality and bold branding over neutral, continuous-reading typography.
Counters tend to be small and angular, and diagonals are emphasized through triangular wedges and clipped corners. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with strong, simplified forms and distinctive interior cutouts (notably in 8 and 9), keeping the set cohesive in headlines and short bursts of text.
