Yuppies also like red, yellow and orange space. Their tastes are not so different from those of teenagers, but they have much more money to spend and like to eat and drink more than is good for them. The Tivoli Gardens of Scandinavia are a good pattern to follow. [Yuppy = young urban professional person.]
