I personally find all the overlapping boxes a bit busy, but within each box, things are spaced very well.
Content is balanced well with design and there's good variation in colours available.
Pet peeve, and I see this in a lot of layouts: putting a colour background on an element that contains headings and not putting any padding on the element. If your text is just flowing along with no other backgrounds, that's awesome, but text butting right up to the edge of a coloured background is uncomfortable looking.
This is also an issue with colour blocked sidebars that have no padding or margins on them that then but right up to the edge of the screen. Even on a mobile device--which none of these layouts are for, some padding will fit.
Nothing overdesigned here--the focus is really on colour combinations--and the foundation is good.
