Sans Faceted Ipne 6 is a bold, narrow, monoline, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Acumin' by Adobe, 'Reader Condensed' by Colophon Foundry, 'Sansmatica' by Fontop, 'Breuer Condensed' by TypeTrust, and 'Herd' by Wahyu and Sani Co. (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with short planar facets. Terminals and joins are consistently chamfered, giving bowls and rounds an octagonal feel (notably in O/0 and similar shapes). Stroke weight stays even throughout, with tight counters and squared-off apertures that create a dense, high-impact texture. Proportions are condensed with a tall x-height and short ascenders/descenders, producing an efficient, stacked rhythm in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, branding marks, and short emphatic copy where its angular construction can be appreciated. It also fits applications that benefit from a tough, fabricated look—such as sports graphics, product packaging, labels, and environmental or wayfinding-style treatments at display sizes.
The faceted geometry and blunt, engineered forms read as utilitarian and assertive, evoking signage, equipment labeling, and sports or uniform numerals. Its sharp corners and compressed stance give it a no-nonsense, performance-oriented tone rather than a friendly or literary one.
The design appears intended to translate a rugged, machined aesthetic into a condensed sans, using consistent corner chamfers to create a distinctive faceted voice while maintaining clear, uniform stroke construction across letters and numerals.
The lowercase is built to harmonize with the uppercase through shared chamfer logic and similarly narrow set widths, while figures carry the same cut-corner construction for a cohesive alphanumeric system. The overall impression is more about graphic presence than delicate detail, with shapes optimized for punchy silhouettes and strong word images at larger sizes.
