Space Watch Report

A selection of sets created for the Space edition of Vanity Fair’s Watch Report, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11's landing on the moon. For this series, Owen teamed up with photographer Magnus Torsne and creative director Scott Moore to push the set designs further and to reflect the excitement and awe of the Apollo 11 mission.

Inspired by archive footage from the Apollo 11 mission, the sets recreated one of the most exciting journeys humankind has ever taken; starting with the watches placed at the iconic launch, across the panels of the control centre, entering the stratosphere and finally at the awe-inspiring landing itself. The details of each set were produced and put together by hand out of paper, and were designed to be as close to the real thing as possible.
