The colors are sooo off-topic, it's almost scary. I believe you can make semantic coloring also when you mix the major carrier brand colors together: Vodafone red for active, T-Mobile pink for status updates, O2 blue for normal text, Hutchinson orange for warnings, Cosmote green for success messages. Has anyone ever thought about color-blind people? How are they going to distinguish between the #3EB34F grass-green, #ED3146 scary-red, #19B6EE pale-lightblue and #E95420 Ubuntu orange? Seriously, all puns here are intended. This is not a bold, creative decision. This is seriously broken color scheme design. And not the way you make semantic colors for the general public. While the brand color palette is seriously professional this one is not. It's ridiculous, I'm sorry. Someone should speak up and explain what is wrong here inside the department. There are people out there that care about the future of Ubuntu Touch. That's why there is this rant. And I apologize if some people, hopefully the right ones, are offended by this post.
