Earlier this year we’ve been asked to help redesign the website of lowtechmagazine.com. The primary goal of the redesign was to radically reduce the energy use associated with accessing their web content. At the same time it is an attempt to find out what a low-tech website could be.

In general the idea behind lowtechmagazine.com is to understand technologies and techniques of the past and combine them with the knowledge of today. Not in order to be able to ‘do more with the same’, but rather ‘to do the same with less’.
