The body copy should be set with the viewer's available version of Helvetica, specifically Helvetica Neue. Though the fontstack specifies that it should fallback first to Arial for it's superior rendering on Windows systems before Helvetica and finally a sans-serif.

This type should also render at the browser's default size, this will vary based on the settings of individual viewers, but 16px is the default of most systems/browsers.

For good measure and to se how things work in longer form, some lorem. Pellentesque tincidunt, nisl vel posuere commodo, nibh quam placerat nisi, at congue tellus mauris quis mauris.

Uppe Folly

for KCL Arts + Humanities Festival 2014

Mobile Studio Architects designs a pop-up modular folly for KCL Arts + Humanities Festival 2014.

Uppe Folly is located in The Strand Quadrangle, a long and relatively narrow space confined by the tall façades of King's College London and Somerset House. In response to the 'Underground' theme, Uppe Folly encourages visitors to simply stop and look up - something we often forget to do in a dense and busy city such as London.

Uppe Folly will provide an additional seating area to the existing coffee kiosk. Apart from being an anchor point for festival visitors, the folly will also attract members of the public from the main road into the Quad, which is in itself an underused thoroughfare connecting the Strand and River Thames.
