For my experiment, I want to ask participants who are not from the design field about their perception and personal preference regarding Eszett skeletons in both lowercase and uppercase. However, to present street names with the different lowercase Eszett variations, I first had to create them in Glyphs. Adjusted to the proportions of the Mabry typeface, I attempted to design the three Eszett variants. Lowercase letters are generally more challenging to draw as they contain many curves and details. The historical variant was the most difficult skeleton form for me because its proportions are somewhat unusual.

For all three Eszett variants, I used different approaches and combined various letter components.
