Twelve chart types adapted to Aqua's design system — brand colors, mono axis labels, serif KPI numbers, the Linen page surface, the same hairlines and spacing. Every chart ships with a palette controller so you can swap between Aqua / Tamarind / Blaze / Hawkes / Diverge schemes on the fly. Each is a self-contained HTML file. Fork it, swap the data shape at the top of the script, ship. Curated from the D3 Graph Gallery and Observable's D3 gallery, filtered for what we actually use day-to-day: fund flows, geography, performance matrices, risk-return scatter, allocation breakdowns.
Where capital, attention, or activity moves through the system. Best for fund flows, deal progression, and structural decompositions where the story is "thing X becomes thing Y."
Where things are. RIA / IBD distribution, DST property location, custodian footprint. The choropleth is the workhorse; bubble map adds a second dimension (size = magnitude).
AUM growth, fund performance curves, allocation drift over time. The stacked area shows composition over time (allocation mix); the streamgraph is the smoother organic-feel version.
Top-N tables visualized. Lollipop is the cleanest single-metric ranking; bullet chart adds a target / threshold marker so you can see "where each item lands vs. plan." Both replace dense data tables.
How two (or three) variables move together. Heatmap is best for matrix data (persona × channel performance); bubble adds a third dimension via size. Both anchor evaluation conversations.
When the breakdown matters more than absolute numbers. Treemap packs hundreds of items by relative size into a single frame; sunburst shows the same with one extra level of nesting.
