Abstract
This paper aims to start a conversation about rethinking de- sign research environments and practices, as socially and physically accessible and engaging for design researchers with mixed abilities. We report a first-person account of how a design researcher can face physical and social exclusion in related environments. We recall several instances from a disabled design researcher's experiences in a design lab, in a design conference, and in the design research process itself. We recommend ways to transition design labs and research practices to more inclusive infrastructures and practices.
