Moments in Time is a series of sculptures by Dominic Wilcox, commissioned by Dezeen Watch Store and sold exclusively at Dezeen Space.
Each presents a tableau with tiny characters balanced on the hands of a watch – check them out in our story here and watch an interview with Wilcox here.
Dezeen Space also hosts our latest Dezeen Watch Store pop-up with dozens of new models and you can pick up a copy of our new book, the Dezeen Book of Ideas, for just £12.
We’re selling T-shirts, magazines, bicycle lights, stationery and analogue amplifiers for smartphones made out of old vinyl records by Paul Cocksedge, so be sure to check out the shop.
There’s also a lighting installation by Plumen, winners of the 2011 Brit Insurance Design of the Year award.
Dezeen Screen is based at Dezeen Space, where we’ve set up a video studio to interview interesting people who drop in during the month.
Thanks to everyone who dropped in during the London Design Festival – if you didn’t make it we hope to see you there in the next few weeks!

Dezeen Space: east London street artist Stewy joins us at our micro-exhibition Dezeen Platform at Dezeen Space today.
His work focusses on an A to Z of indigenous British animals, created in no particular order.
His imagery has progressed from small black and white pigeons, first made in 2007, to his most recent work, a 6ft high white horse.
Stewy will stencil an animal onto the plinth, then exhibit the framed stencil on top.
Stewy’s work can be found in London, Brighton, Hastings, Birmingham and Manchester.
Each day, for 30 days, a different designer will use a one metre by one metre space to exhibit their work at Dezeen Space. See the full lineup for Dezeen Platform here.

Dezeen Space: Estonian graphic designer Evelik Kasikov takes her place at our micro-exhibition Dezeen Platform at Dezeen Space today.
Her CMYK embroidery is a series of hand-made prints that replace inks with thread.
Just as the full range of colours can be achieved in printing by arranging dots of three subtractive primaries on a grid, Kasikov meticulously overlaps crosses of embroidery thread to colour her graphic images.
She began to develop the project while studying at Central Saint Martins.
Each day, for 30 days, a different designer will use a one metre by one metre space to exhibit their work at Dezeen Space. See the full lineup for Dezeen Platform here.

Alba comprises a child’s chair and stool made from wooden kitchen implements including rolling pins and wooden spoons.
Back in 2009 Arquer’s non-lethal mousetraps were one of the most popular projects ever published on Dezeen and they’re featured in the Dezeen Book of Ideas, which you can order online or buy in person at Dezeen Space.
