AachenColorPalette

R-CMD-check codecov GitHub

Overview

This package allows to query colors from a palette inspired from RWTH Aachen corporate design using R. The color palette contains 13 different colors, each in 5 different intensities (100%, 75%, 50%, 25% and 10%; see figure below).

Disclaimer

The color palette makes no claim to completeness or correctness of the official RWTH Aachen corporate design.

Installation

# install the development version from GitHub
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("christianholland/AachenColorPalette")

Usage

Query colors by combining color name in lower case (check figure below for color names) and color intensity. For colors with 100% intensity the color name alone is sufficient.

# load package
library(AachenColorPalette)

# show the color palette
display_aachen_color()

# query single or multiple colors
aachen_color("blue")
[1] "#00549F"

aachen_color("green", "green75", "green50", "green25", "green10")
[1] "#57AB27" "#8DC060" "#B8D698" "#DDEBCE" "#F2F7EC"
