Research existing designs and trends. Nature and environment. Art, culture, and museums. Collaborative brainstorming. Problem-solving approach.

Dribbble and community/browse other designs that can be copied in apps like Figma, Canva. I have also used graphicriver a lot in the past to find design elements or just get some inspiration. You can also play around a bit with Midjourney and see what it thinks of when you say certain words or phrases.

Nature, architecture, cultures, books. Lately, I’ve been finding a lot of inspiration on ChatGPT. Especially when it comes to generating ideas from different perspectives. I also spend some time on Behance and Dribbble to have an idea of what people are into these days but I generally try to avoid being too influenced by these sites.

Dribbble and Muzli are my main inspirations tools.

First step, get design content ready with help of ChatGPT Next, I just look for some good templates which may help me get my project done faster and then look for some samples around. Combining all these I can give my best in all design projects!

As someone who is about to launch my own product soon, I'd love to hear your advice on how to successfully launch a product. Your feedback would be really valuable to me once my product is live.

I love consuming and melting ideas from different type of sources Products. I am looking for products in different areas (to avoid just copying analogues). Mostly trying to learn how they make me feel and what feeling I want to pass to my users Behance and dribble. Searching high-level concepts. But with them I have to be aware that some staff could be too theoretical and won’t work in product. Product Hunt. Here I am trying to get a big picture on trends. Staff that resonates and etc.

Finding inspiration for design projects can come from various sources and methods. I look for inspiration in diverse sources such as nature, art, architecture, and everyday life and explore design blogs, attend conferences, collaborate with others, and stay curious.

Honestly, from other people's product.
@adarshkmr this is the truth and so many people won’t say this. I’ve taken so may element ideas from other products and morphed it into my own

Social trends, sentiment and seasons. Everything changes so should your designs. What worked in the past may not work now! Remember when Rose Gold was everywhere 😂😂😂

dribbble is kinda dead in terms of engagement so I've been mostly on twitter for the past 1.5 - 2 years.

Hey Didem, Design itself is a very sophisticated niche. I would say either you master the designing by learning or hire an expert. 👊
