Four rectangular Tatami mats, depicted as four different colors as shown above, are arranged to form a big rectangle, where all mats have the side lengths as whole integers. Also, the blue mat is a square; the green mat is unit larger than the blue one; the red mat unit larger than the blue one.
If the white mat has side lengths of some odd prime numbers, what is the area of the white mat in unit ?
