Ideas for the Design

When I saw the word "sunlit"

The Church of Light by Ando just flooded into my head.

Then the next image in my head is the man examining a glass of wine by a slit of sunlight in a dark room.

Therefore I design the room with no window but a large slit on the wall that is facing the sun.

I think the courtyard plays an important role for the painting,

it affects the light for the whole.

So I decided to have a courtyard for my design.

I did some thinking/ designing before I thought about the sentence.

The original design has three rooms: one for him to taste the wine, one for storage of wine/cella and one room for him to study about wine.

But then I thought I might drag myself too far from the origin, the painting, if I do three rooms therefore after discussion, I focus on the room for him to taste the wine.
