Thermaltake have recently been awarded the 2019 Good Design Award for the Thermaltake A500 Aluminium Chasis out of 4,772 entries.
I reviewed the case this time last year and thought it was a superb case, certainly my favourite looking of the Thermaltake options so I think it deserved the award.
The case itself is not cheap at around £220, however, if you want something similar, but on a budget, I would recommend looking at the Thermaltake S500 which shares many of the aesthetics but at a fraction of the price.
