Dear Future Tampines Home,

In forty years, I see you as a town where innovation meets compassion. Robots clean the streets, solar lights guide us, and everyone feels included. From bustling markets to peaceful gardens, you bring people together. You are not just buildings, but a caring family we proudly call home.

To My Future Tampines Home,

With this pencil drawing, which I dedicate to you, I envision a future Tampines community that incorporates the latest technology into everyday life. Families will have access to the newest robots and flying vehicles, while still preserving familiar elements like the MRT, Singapore-style regulatory signs, and tree planting. As we progress towards a brighter and more sustainable future, we will never forget the things that bring us peace, harmony, and joy.

Love, Yang Dewen

2nd Prize: Sruthi Ghanta

To My Future Tampines Home,

My vision of you when Singapore turns 100 is depicted in my drawing: you will be a caring town with a community of environmentally conscious people. I see everyone coexisting peacefully, and there will be flying taxis, electric buses, and robots. Technology, nature, and kindness will flourish together. I wish for Tampines to be forever vibrant, united, and caring.

Love, Sruthi Ghanta

3rd Prize: Chua Zhe Yu Darius

To My Future Tampines Home,

My vision of the future is based on a simple bus stop. It is the year 2050, and I am on a driverless bus, looking out of its window. I see the ordinary-looking bus stop at Blk 410 transformed into a futuristic one. It has a centralised smart cooling system, vertical gardens, and caters to the needs of commuters with mobility challenges.

Love, Chua Zhe Yu Darius

Huang Chengyou

1st Prize: Huang Chengyou

To My Future Tampines Home,

When Singapore celebrates its 100th birthday, you’ll be a modern town filled with high-tech farms managed by AI assistants. Everyone will be part of a caring community—one that is kind and full of empathy. As one family, residents will farm together and enjoy the many cycling and swimming facilities. You’ll be a model town that sets the standard for sustainability and inclusivity.

Love, Huang Chengyou

Huang ShinYun

2nd Prize: Huang ShinYun

To My Future Tampines Home,

You’re going to be totally awesome! You’ll be a home where everyone is cared for by their family and super cool, chatty robots. For those who live alone, robots will serve as companions — everyone’s lifesavers, dusting away loneliness and housework in a blink.

Love, Huang ShinYun

Leong Jun Ning

3rd Prize: Leong Jun Ning

To My Future Tampines Home,

You are a model town that thrives and flourishes under gigantic super trees, fully connected by slides, flying buses, handicapped ramps and pedestrian-friendly streets. MPs conduct meet-the-people sessions in treehouses and give children giant-sized ice-cream every month.

Love, Leong Jun Ning

I hope you sparkle with fun for everyone — grandparents, children, and friends of every race and ability! I dream of splashy sandcastles, winding cycling tracks, an infinity pool above HDB skies, and even driverless buses. With vertical farms, solar power, and caring neighbours, you’ll be my happiest, eco-friendly model town. Happy SG100!

Love, Jerynne Lim
