Best Steam Machine Case?

What would be the best, smallest, and most attractive case i can buy for a build your own steam machine.

 

Most attractive would be a matter of opinion. As far as size goes, depends on if you want cube or tower style. I personally use the Azza Z, and while its not the best looking case, its small and gets the job done with a full size PSU in it and a reference GTX 770 in it. 

 

Here is what the inside of my case looks like, just excuse the poor wire management: http://prntscr.com/6gpyos

I like the design of the Azza Z, but the green looks tacky imho. Can you change that?

Personally, I really like the way the Silverstone ML07 looks. I've been wanting to build a new machine on one of those for a while now, even if it isn't for me.

Look at ftz01, it's aluminum

Have you seen Corsair's 380T? It's not quite as small as ftz01 or ML07, but is still quite small. It manages to still look like a PC and even has a neat little handle on top for transportation.

A full size GPU fits inside as well. I believe it comes in three colours, but don't quote me on that.
