Yellow space should stimulate one's curiosity, with an abundance of things to hear, feel, smell and touch (Figure 4). In the countryside, it may be found where two habitats meet. Meadowland is often yellow ochre. Species diversity should be high. One keeps wanting to pick things up, smell them and experience the texture. Butterflies display their soft or hectic hues. Perfume fills the air. Yellow space heightens anticipation.
