It's just that in the case of these houses, the sameness is brought to a new qualitative realm by their limited color palette, a realm that speaks in a voice quite different from the uniformity of blue-and-white color of places like Santorini in Greece.
(One has to wonder why, so many decades after they were constructed, that so many of these houses remain in those few pastel hues.)
It's sort of like a those blanket-cloth long coats worn when Monty Python members would dress as women - black and white doesn't quite capture the flairless sameness that my eyes instantly noticed when we would go into a working district pub in England in the 1970s.
