A system of two superconducting flux quantum bits coupled to a high quality LC resonator will be presented. This is one of the representations in what is known today as circuit quantum electrodynamics (c-QED). The qubits act as engineered artificial atoms whose properties can be tuned. The combination of a large electromagnetic field of the cavity in a small volume and the large magnetic dipole moment of the qubits, put the system well into the strong coupling regime, and even beyond where cavity QED can’t reach. Descriptions about the fabrication, circuit layout and measurements will be shown and perspectives on what the system could offer in the future will be discussed.
