Designs popular shelters (7)
'designs' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'popular shelters' is the wordplay.
'popular' becomes 'in'.
'shelters' becomes 'tents' (tent is a kind of shelter).
'in'+'tents'='INTENTS'
(Other definitions for intents that I've seen before include "Designs" , "meanings" .)

(Other definitions for intends that I've seen before include "Has as a purpose" , "Aims" , "Plans, means" .)
