Google Fonts Improvement Project: Quicksand /r

With the blessing of Quicksand's designer, Andrew Paglinawa, I'm developing improvements to the Google Font Quicksand on various fronts.

The general direction of Quicksand's improvements: • Space Quicksand as a display typeface. • Add weight between Reg and Bold master.(will require the Reg weight to be lightened to create enough of a visual jump) • Increase the x-height of the Bold master • Introduce slight contrast to strokes. (To remove the "Dipped in Chocolate" look) • Introduce alternates based on the bauhaus style, which this design is quoting.

On the left is the original /r. The middle is the adjusted /r. The right is a overlay of the two /r's
