Abstract
We verify a construction which, for the reals, complex numbers, quaternions, or octonions, builds a spherical -design by placing a spherical -design on each -projective or -Hopf fiber associated to the points of a -design on a quotient projective space or sphere. This generalizes work of K\"{o}nig and Kuperberg, who verified the case of the projective settings, and of Okuda, who (inspired by independent observation of this construction by Cohn, Conway, Elkies, and Kumar) verified the case of the generalized Hopf settings.
