New wall color trend in reformed buildings opinion POLL

There's a trend that has been popping up in my neighborhood lately, almost every old building that gets reformed gets a color scheme like the one in the pictures. Do you guys see this type of stuff where you live? I've added a poll to see what you think about it. I've posted photos made with my phone so please excuse the crappy quality. I've posted sorta a before and after with the buildings that haven't been reformed yet, to put it in perspective. Cheers

Here's with the new color
