The {Rdune} package offers a collection of color palettes inspired by ‘Dune’, designed for use in data visualizations and graphics with {ggplot2}.

The structure of the code and creative inspiration were drawn from the {PrettyCols}, {wesanderson}, {MetBrewer}, {PNWColors} packages.

Colors were selected using {eyedroppeR}.

See https://nvietto.github.io/Rdune/ for full documentation.
