Interestingly, the idea of the horizontal quadrangle on the floor came from Vladimir Nabokov's 'The Gift'. I had read that book ages ago but a segment of a sentence had stuck in my memory.

'As he crossed towards the pharmacy at the corner...[he] saw... a blindingly white parallelogram of sky being unloaded from the van...'

I realized the origin after I finished doing the yellowish-white patch.
