Iluma. What a building huh? Designed by the ever so mighty WoHa Architects. But oh wait! Wad's this?
Aw man, poor planning. Just look at the amount of litter to the inaccessible place.
It's all over the place. So yea, in school, we strive hard, countless hours invested into the thought process and yet, would you just look at that. Just look at it.
Ouch. What about that for a fire escape staircase.
And honestly, that's a funny place for a pipe.
So yes. Maybe they lied. Maybe there is no such desire too strive for perfection in an economic ruled world. The doors of the building, my god they're heavy. Yeap, this is what happens when you judge a book by it's cover. There is no denying the beauty of the building when you're outside, but inside, be prepared for an unpleasant surprise.
But then again. I am being over critical with the building. Afterall, the imperfections shown in the pictures above are found at places which might never be accessed by the public. So what do I like about Iluma?
That grand escalator that takes you all the way up to the fourth floor. Yes, definitely more thought could be spent on the journey and the spatial experience up, but oh my, what an idea. What a way to control the human flow. Bringing us up, pass the huge atrium space and straight to dining areas, where we begin to descend to the shops and finally back down to the first storey.
The sleekness of the lights on the elevators. It glows red when you're going down and green when you're going up. Neat. But you haven't seen everything yet.
The panels in the lift. Set to match the panels around the building. Shows it wasn't just any cut and paste job.
But what really takes me aback about Iluma? This...
They have actually managed to create a garden, on the roof of a building, in the middle of Bugis.
Yea, big deal? So what? The National Library has those as well.
But hey, I'm quite sure this wasn't easy to do, and no it doesn't feel as impressive as Vivo's sky deck, but I'm applauding them for the effort.
By the way, anybody wants to visit this place with me? Preferably a girl..
...
Ouh, and check out my new tires.
Weird though. Inflate to 105 PSI. They didn't give a range, like 100~110 PSI. They specifically said 105PSI. Like how on earth am I going to be that accurate with a hand pump!?
