About this podcast
Design is a spell. Intention is everything.
Every Tuesday, Rachel of the interior design studio Tiger Veil shares design rituals for an intentional life, guided by the unseen: energy, astrology, Feng Shui, tarot and intuition, always brought back to a real room. Episodes move between rituals of the unseen, intentional living, design audits of real homes and hospitality spaces, and conversations with makers about the materials they work with.
