That looks rather primitive. I wonder whether the difference between low-tech and high-tech isn’t simply an aesthetic one. If the designs were adapted so that they no longer looked as they’d been designed by an anarcho-primitivist, would we still regard them as low-tech at all?

It is not about aesthetics but functionality achieved with cheap avaiable material. That looks seldom beautiful.
