Honestly it's just over saturation of similar treatments. It will evolve. It's not that I really dislike any colours. All colours have their place. I personally look forward to the day someone does a red, magenta, purple or emerald green again. Or even a deep blue. I think it's maybe about the saturation of colour.
These look really good though and white can really do wonders for freshening up a palette.
 
This appears to be this development??

You have to wonder how that mess got through the DRP without someone catching on.

1) The DRP has not been around that long, and 2) I'm not certain that the DRP has dealt with the colour of glass. Since the time that the DRP has been around, developers have pretty much moved away from green glass anyway. I don't know if it has just been left behind over its aesthetic characteristics, or if it's also something to do with low E coatings, or thermal properties, etc. Anyone know?
