Wisma Atria's lights are very pretty. The lights of the latter change colour slightly. For the former, I wanted to take a blur shot but my iPhone was too smart and auto-focused too fast. 
The view it to Clarke Quay from Central. When you walk up from the MRT/subway, you see a rather pathetic view at the first floor. Yet it is also rather smart in a way, because I think the architect meant for people to not really enjoy this little space with food signs blaring down at you and a huge lift to ferry office workers up but to cross over into an atrium and stare at escalators crisscrossing the main space. This second space is like a Sim Lim Square of sorts, that notorious building that provides quality hardware for techies and yet scams the living daylights out of poor tourists. I got quite curious about a shop with a long queue of people coming for free luggage and apparently after asking a dude on the MRT (whose demeanour reminded me of an architect where I'm interning) it transpired that this is a bank's scheme. Or credit card or something. Anyway. Yes, I got to feel a little frightened on the escalators because they were really chucking me in thin air. Central also reminds me a little of Orchard Central, where there's also a layout which people find disorientating. And the shops are a little too unprofessional looking and open to the public and small for such a space. So, quite clashy.
