The impressive heritage with a 150 years old history defines the company alongside with an ambition to always develope it´s business, offer and ways of working. When the decision was made to redesign the Swedish headquarters from a traditional office landscape to an inspiring and activity-based office, Tikkurila wanted to ensure that solutions were found to meet the various challenges posed by such a change. Among other things, the company wanted to simplify bookings of meeting rooms and workspaces, and, with the help of statistics, be able to map how all surfaces and workplaces are utilized.

The ambition is to unceasingly match real needs with the right conditions and constantly make the most of the spaces and workplaces we have, "says Carina Sesser Nylund, PR & Communications manager at Tikkurila.
"We are so proud to welcome Tikkurila to the more than 60 companies that has joined us in the quest to fight friction", says Peter Reigo, CEO of Flowscape.
The implementation of the Flowscape system starts straight away. It includes software and hardware to create greater flow. For instance the Smartphone app that helps employees view the office on the way to the office or at work being able to book that first morning meeting. Sensors at the work stations that will make all occupied desks go red in the Flowmap instantly when somebody is sitting down. The hardware also contains large billboard screens on each floor for easy navigation and room booking.
