About
Dr. Amy Dennis-Jones is a leading voice at the intersection of inclusive design, gerontechnology, and sustainable architecture. Her pioneering work reimagines the built environment as a dynamic partner in human health, particularly for aging and frail populations. Her most cited paper, "Creating Resilient Smart Homes with a Heart" (2024, 10 citations), is a landmark synthesis that bridges the gap between technological innovation and compassionate, sustainable housing. In this work, she argues that smart home technologies—including assistive robots—must be integrated into homes designed from the outset for health, longevity, and environmental resilience. Dr. Dennis-Jones challenges the prevailing focus on purely "green" housing, advocating instead for a holistic model that serves both people and the planet. Her research is notable for its human-centered approach, ensuring that advanced systems do not alienate the very users they are meant to empower. By championing inclusive design across the lifespan, she has established a critical framework for creating homes that are not only technologically advanced but also emotionally supportive and ecologically sound. Her work is essential reading for anyone designing the future of housing for an aging society.
