The Role of Inspiration and Imagination in Design

Where do sudden insights—those creative “leaps” of inspiration—come from? This exploration of imagination and design proposes that the creative process involves more than just steps of reasoning. Inspiration often appears fully formed, untraceable to logic alone.

Designers frequently draw from nature to create things that are elegant, purposeful, and unified. If nature is our most consistent source of good design, what does that say about its origin? These questions challenge the notion of randomness and suggest deeper implications.
