The very book you (and possibly Andrew) are looking for-- Joyful: The Surprising Power of Ordinary Things to Create Extraordinary Happiness.

It includes discussion of what makes people happy, including bright colors, circular patterns, a sense of abundance... Not all the qualities have to be present, and some are inconsistent with each other, but the whole thing is right, I think.
