MoMAColors

Palettes inspired by works at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

This is the sister package to MetBrewer, which contains color schemes based around artwork at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Structure of the package was based on coding from the PNWColors and wesanderson packages.

moma.colors("vonHeyl")

Ex1

moma.colors("Liu", n=6, type="discrete")

Ex2

moma.colors("Clay", 5)

Ex3

moma.colors("Ernst" , n=100, type="continuous")

Ex4

Displaying All Palettes

All palettes can be displayed at once using the display.all.moma function. This returns all palettes in their entirety if no n is provided.

display.all.moma()

Ex9

You are also able to enter the desired number of colors to view all palettes at the specific level.

display.all.moma(5)

Ex10

You are able to only view colorblind-friendly palettes with the colorblind_only parameter.

display.all.moma(colorblind_only = T)

Ex11

All other parameters in moma.colors can be passed into display.all.moma

display.all.moma(n=4, override_order = T, direction = -1)

Ex12

ggplot2 Examples

Here are also some ways you can incorporate this package into {ggplot2}

ggplot(data=iris, aes(x=Species, y=Petal.Length, fill=Species)) +
  geom_violin() +
  scale_fill_manual(values=moma.colors("Smith", 3))

Ex5

ggplot(data=iris, aes(x=Sepal.Length, y=Sepal.Width, color=Species)) +
  geom_point(size=2) +
  scale_color_moma_d("Liu")

Ex6

ggplot(data=iris, aes(x=Species, y=Sepal.Width, color=Sepal.Width)) +
  geom_point(size=3) +
  scale_color_gradientn(colors=moma.colors("Alkalay2"))

Ex7

library(urbnmapr)
countydata %>%
  left_join(counties, by = "county_fips") %>%
  filter(state_name =="Nebraska") %>%
  ggplot(mapping=aes(long,lat,group = group, fill = horate)) +
  geom_polygon(color="black",size=.25) +
  scale_fill_moma_c("Kippenberger") +
  coord_fixed() +
  labs(fill="Homeownership rate") +
  theme_void()

Ex8

Colorblind Friendly Checking

MoMAColors::colorblind_moma_palettes

 [1] "Alkalay1"     "Alkalay2"     "Althoff"      "Andri"        "Connors"      "Doughton"

You can also test is a palettes is colorblind friendly using the function provided

MoMAColors::colorblind.friendly.moma("Palermo")
[1] TRUE

MoMAColors::colorblind.friendly.moma("Avedon")
[1] FALSE

Test Plots

The test.plots.moma function returns 4 different visualization types to get a quick glimse of how a desired palette would look in practice. This includes a starburst plot, a stream plot, a violin plot, and a stack bar chart. The test.plots.moma function can take all parameters that moma.colors is able to; however, plots cannot be generated when more than 26 colors are requested.

test.plots.moma("Picabia")

Ex13

test.plots.moma("Picasso", 5, direction = -1)
