ACG Research Mission 01
ACG Research Mission 01 - The Big Drop For ACG's first Research Mission, Amsterdam Berlin created a 48-hour expedition in Moab, Utah, built around a custom Research Station engineered with Helinox. At its centre, an open-sided Rotunda and surrounding Rainfly tents formed a lightweight architectural system clad in thermochromic ripstop, shifting from orange to white as temperatures changed. The camp became both the operational base and a visible register of the desert conditions, while 35 participants moved through slickrock and canyons with local Landkeepers, testing the Lava Flow Ultralight jacket across temperatures from 8°C to 38°C. Spanning architecture, expedition design, field equipment and visual identity, The Big Drop established a new format for ACG Research Missions built around proof over promise.
