SNW threads the needle well for the costumes, sick bay, and bridge. I do think engineering looks preposterous and should have been much more compact.
It's a difficult thing to make a setting that still looks futuristic but also ties back to the 1960s. If you do it one-for-one it will be distractingly campy. Fun for a one off episode like that time in ENT where they found a TOS era ship, but for a whole show trying to be serious it would be distracting. The other extreme is whatever the heck Discovery did with its designs, which are just eye watering.
ENT had a really nice engineering set that harkened back to TOS while vibing as more low tech. SNW should have used ENT as a guide I think for engineering.
