As an adult, what is the minimum size tank I will need for an adult Olive Python? Conversely, is there a maximum size I shouldn't exceed? What I mean is will an Olive python become stressed if I have it in a too big or too open enclosure?

I custom make my own tanks/vivariums so the issues that glass tanks normally have, I don't encounter since I construct them each for the specific species that will go into it. I also plan on making this enclosure for display and so it will actually have to look nice as well as being functional. I will be building it into a wall in my basement with the back portion of the tank/enclosure sitting in my utility room and the front will sit flush with the wall on the other side. (Or would this be a bad idea for an Olive?) Of course, I would not start him or her out in this display since it will be too large, but I would like to start planning it now.
