Retrofitting the future

In this episode of High Agency, we sit down with Arman Motaghi, founder and CEO of Properate, to explore how building science is powering a quiet revolution in climate action. Arman shares his unexpected journey into the world of energy efficiency and how Properate is helping homeowners, contractors, and governments make smarter decisions about the spaces we live in.

We dig into startup myths, retrofitting realities, and why the air we breathe indoors might be the most overlooked part of our well-being. This one changed how we think about “home”—and we think it might do the same for you.
