The previous, for reference:

The new scheme needs some weathering and aging. Way too "new" and bold right now.

Agreed too new looking. Don’t hate it but needs to weather a bit. The Florida sun and rain will fix that right up.

Looks great, nice fresh looking and maybe more representative of the Tuscany region colors?

I think it's a gorgeous color, but it seems to clash a little with the existing pavilion. I also agree with others that it needs to be weathered quite a bit, it looks very "theme park," if that makes sense.

Having been to the regions of Italy, I'd say the new color is too sharp and deep and not reflective of buildings that age. Certainly doesn't match the other buildings in the pavilion. At least Italy is getting some love, though.

This seems random, why did they feel the need to paint this at all? Not a fan at the moment. Might need to see more photos and videos in different lighting conditions - also possible it's not finished?

what is their problem with paint and colors at this park, and the same team brought over from tomorrowland?

It’s a little dark but probably to account for fading? Looks nice.

oh my god. You people will complain about anything...

Looks good! Just like new shoes, just need to be broken in.

Looks to me like they're still working on it?

I would tend to agree. The tower at the top only seems to have the front painted, so there's likely more work to be done here. I kind of hope they weather the finish a bit immediately even though I know the sun will do that on its own. Just looks slightly unnatural where the brick peeks through the peeled plaster since the paint is so fresh in contrast.

 

[jmuboy]

Well the new version certainly has that modern F&W clutter! Lol

I feel like I should be eating some gingerbread looking at that.

i love all the love that epcot is getting! So many details big and small being improved at this park!

Mmm like the different colors between the two buildings.. it looks good to me!

Two words "Olive Garden" Epcot's new slogan... "When you're here, you're family" Food and wine entry now comes with endless breadsticks, soup and salad. OK, I'll show myself out.

 

[rkleinlein]

So ugly. Yet another aesthetic/theming flop. And completely unnecessary. It's not as bad as the entire France expansion, for example, but still. Has everyone good been poached by Universal?

 

[FigmentFan82]

Should look good once it's all finished and touched up

THEY'RE RUINING EPCOT!
