Spiral bar chart

chart planet Posted on 2026-06-20 by Chart Planet2026-06-20

I invented a chart for those cases when we have a squared space for a single part-to-whole number. Bar chart does not fit there, it needs an elongated rectangular space for values to be distinguishable.

I call this one Spiral Bar Chart, but it could as well be a Spiral Gauge.

Pros:

  • Not a pie-chart
  • Takes up a square, which sometimes is exactly what we need

Cons:

  • Difficult to make
  • Impossible to read, but who cares as long as it is not a pie-chart
