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).
The color palette makes no claim to completeness or correctness of the official RWTH Aachen corporate design.
# install the development version from GitHub
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("christianholland/AachenColorPalette")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.
