From a hospitality expo in Las Vegas to a design festival in London and then to the biggest ADHD conference in North America, Rachel Jackson is bringing a single concept to all three venues.
AUSTIN, TX, UNITED STATES, July 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — This year, neuroinclusive interior designer and IDCEC-certified educator Rachel Jackson has been presenting at three events that rarely intersect: hospitality design, international design festivals, and clinical ADHD conferences. Collectively, these appearances signify a broader shift — neuroinclusive design has moved beyond being a specialized topic confined to isolated segments of the industry.
In May, Jackson participated in a fireside chat panel at the HD Expo + Conference in Las Vegas, one of the country’s largest hospitality design gatherings, which draws over 10,000 designers, architects, and operators to Mandalay Bay. Alongside Andrea Keller from 4D Design, Jackson delivered the session “Designing for Different Minds: The Future of Neuroinclusive Hospitality,” exploring how lighting, acoustics, spatial flow, and fractal geometry influence guest comfort and nervous system regulation in hotels and restaurants.
This autumn, Jackson travels to London for NeuroPlaces, the UK’s first B2B exhibition and conference focused on neuroinclusive, accessible, and inclusive design for public spaces and workplaces. The event takes place September 15–17, 2026, as part of Shoreditch Design Week, the largest official district within the London Design Festival. Jackson will lead a fireside chat titled “Small Changes, Big Impact: Designing Neuroinclusive Spaces Without Major Renovation” and host a hands-on workshop called “The Sensory Audit,” guiding participants through a structured approach to identifying glare, echo, and visual clutter in existing environments.
In December, Jackson brings the conversation back to the people it ultimately serves. She will conduct a workshop at the 2026 International Conference on ADHD, co-hosted by ACO, ADDA, and CHADD in Baltimore from December 3–5 — the largest multidisciplinary ADHD gathering in North America. Her session, “Your Home Is Dysregulating You: A Sensory-Friendly Design Workshop,” provides attendees with a personalized Sensory Home Audit and a concrete list of actions to implement at home.
“Six months ago I was talking about hotel lighting in Las Vegas. This fall I’m in London talking to designers, and in December I’m in Baltimore talking to people living with ADHD,” said Jackson. “That’s not three separate audiences. It’s the same idea landing in every room that shapes how people feel — because it should have been in all of them from the start.”
Jackson brings over two decades of interior design experience to her practice, along with IDCEC certification and training through the Institute for Challenging Disorganization. She has ADHD herself and draws on her own sensory experiences as a practitioner. Her work is not restricted by geography — Jackson works remotely with families and individuals and teaches designers nationwide through her IDCEC-certified course, Interior Design for Sensory-Friendly Homes.
Jackson is available for speaking engagements, workshops, and professional training. Inquiries can be directed to rachel@racheljacksondesign.com.
