To me it is not surprising that an interviewer would not be satisfied if you attribute your success to luck alone. What can you contribute to a new work place if you rely purely on luck? It is important to identify how you were in a position to take advantage of the lucky circumstances that you had... My two cents: A well thought out design process tries to augment luck with a controlled progress: where you try to move towards your goals in a systematic, more controlled, way so the final outcome is less dependent on luck but more dependent on your ability to properly adjust and execute your design plan. It might be that luck was more important than the process in your case, but that hard to build on, and more importantly, to make any learnings for the future, it still good to analyze how the process could be made better, how you could better take advantage of the lucky circumstances you had.
