What transforms a house into a home? In this episode of Rethinking Barndominium Design I The 1845 Podcast ft. Natalie Papier, we sit down with interior designer, host of Artfully Designed, and author of Start with the Art, Natalie Papier, to explore what it really means to design with intention.  Natalie shares her philosophy of “designing for the soul”—a process rooted in emotion, storytelling, and creating spaces that reflect who you truly are. From bold, expressive interiors to deeply personal details, this conversation goes beyond aesthetics and into how a home should feel.  We also take you behind the scenes of a current high-profile custom home collaboration between Natalie and our team at 1845 Barndominiums—where design and construction come together from the very beginning to create something truly one-of-one. If you’re building, designing, or simply dreaming about your future home, this episode will shift how you think about the spaces you live in. Because the goal isn’t just to build something beautiful— it’s to build something that feels like you.
