That would certainly provide more flexibility in how to display the data, 
that is true. I would say that each unit of info you want to display in a cell 
should be one of those objects. Then a collection of those objects (either 
multiple rooms, same time slot or multiple time slots same room) would be 
another.. You could assign the object to a TList to make the collection easier.

If I understood you well, the problem you're describing is not
a drawing problem or a database problem at all. It's more
a design problem.

I believe you first need to depict your data using
a set of business classes and a 2-dimensional array
of objects of those classes where you'll have together
all the required information.

Obviously you need a TRoom (read column) class,
a TDayInARoom or something similar, a TDaySlot, etc, etc.

Fetch the data from your datastore,
create your businnes objects and put them
in that array, and then you can find many
ways to represent that information either
in a TDrawGrid or a TStringGrid or just
putting TCustomControls or even TButtons
on a TScrollBox, or...
