About

Dr. E. Chrysikou is a leading voice at the intersection of architecture, public health, and inclusive design. Her research fundamentally reimagines the built environment to serve society’s most vulnerable populations, including older adults, frail individuals, and people with complex health needs. A key contribution is her advocacy for new architectural paradigms that move beyond medical models to prioritize personal autonomy and social cohesion, as outlined in her highly influential 2018 paper (23 citations). She is pioneering the concept of "Resilient Smart Homes with a Heart," an integrative framework that synthesizes sustainable housing, smart technologies, and inclusive design to support people and their assistive robots across the lifespan. This forward-looking work, published in 2024 (10 citations), demonstrates her commitment to creating environments that are not only technologically advanced but also deeply humane. Through her research, Chrysikou is shaping a future where design actively combats frailty and fosters dignity, establishing her as a critical thinker in the fields of architectural research and gerontechnology.
