Fastest Growing Colors
The first visualization displays the four most popular colors of 2015 based on image downloads. The colors are given in hex value (#01B1AE, #2E4A17, #40A1AC and #1F2A44) along with high resolution example images that are predominately that color value and consist of simple geometric and repeating patterns. All four images are deep blues and purples.

Colors by country (also given in hex RGB) vary greater than the fastest growing colors; Colors by country consist of peachy skin tones, forest greens, rocky grays, and ocean and sky blues. Clicking on a single country reveals the top three colors from that country along with some example images that are predominately those colors.
