Hi
As has been pointed out, there was a discussion which all were invited
to join in.
IMO (why do people use 'H' to say there opinion is honest? Surely all
opinion is that?), the new appearance is better. As can be seen from
Andreas image the building's numbers are much clearer, which is more
worthwhile than viewing the exact, intricate outline of each residency.
The vast majority of these recent carto upgrades have been an
improvement to OSM.
Use GitHub to suggest some others:

Cheers

The new color looks even worse in non-garden areas where the new

This lack of contrast for the new color makes it harder to see
buildings, the only thing it does is make the address stand out in the
cases there is one at the highest zoom. For people with worse eyesight
this makes the map much less accessible than before.
