Recently, Tikkurila was involved in a charity project for the children’s ward at the Skin and Allergy Hospital Helsinki. The project was coordinated by LEO Pharma Oy. The project volunteers helped to create a new look for the facility, turning the children’s ward into an enchanted forest.

HUSThe new look was found in a design competition, and the design was brought to life by painter students from Maalariammattikoulu Helsinki. The students, who were all volunteers, spent two weeks creating beautifully imaginative murals for the unit’s walls. Tikkurila donated Harmony water-borne full-matt interior paint for the project.

Other sponsors included Artek, EFG Toimistokalusteet, IKEA, Innojok, Fatboy, Philips and Vallila.
