I was curious to know what colours were Traditional Colours of Japan. One of the site I came across showing 465 palettes of Japanese colour is this one. Japanese Site with 465 palettes of traditional colour. While site displays colour beautifully, to see every colour you need to scroll quite bit, so I wanted to plot them using ggplot2.

I stumbled across this beautiful art on Washington Post article, and I wanted to try making the similar art using “digits in pi” myself using R and things I’ve learned recently.
