Achieving design inspirations can be defined as the process that how designers are ignited with design ideas. It is crucial for designers since this ability partly determines the power of their design. The awareness of what its own design practice is in HCI community calls for more studies on the nature of interaction design, design practices and designers. In this paper, I present my study on designers' design processes and design philosophy, based on empirical work with ten designers from varied design fields about how they achieve inspirations. The study has provided a practical method for designers about how they can be more inspired, which can help interaction design practitioners to build a healthier way of design thinking.
