This paper explores the integration of smart aging infrastructure with digital technologies through community-centered spatial design, emphasising its foundational role in developing equitable age-tech solutions. It highlights the importance of involving older adults in co-design processes to ensure technologies align with their needs and social contexts, thereby promoting inclusive and age-friendly environments. By addressing spatial justice and digital integration, this research aims to advance sustainable, accessible, and participatory frameworks that support healthy aging in place. The study underscores the critical interplay between physical space, technology, and community engagement in shaping future age-tech ecosystems.
