Maybe only on surfaces. Lighting has become very colorful.

Look at modern Asian cities. Beijing is rather grey in daytime, but at night, there's colored lighting. Shenzhen, where LEDs are made, has reached insane levels of lighting effects at night. Not only do most of the skyscrapers have animated lighting effects, the effects are coordinated across the whole downtown area. Then there are frequent drone shows.

American cars are now coming stock with lighting effects previously seen on lowriders.
