Help! Which colours for my data visualisations?

Help! Which colours for my data visualisations?
Blog

How many times have you hesitated around which colours to use in data visualisation? We all have preferences, but the colour palette chosen must be adequate for the chart or map.​

DataWrapper put together a guide to help in those moments of (in)decision. In this blog article, we’re exposed to the most common mistakes and how to avoid them.

Since we are talking about DataWrapper, have a look at their blog Chartable. It is filled with examples of data visualisations (how cool is this one??), data preparation steps and data sources. More on DataWrapper in a future post of this blog!
