I like the 5.25 bays on the top. You could fit a res, or a big display, or a fan controller, or w/e there. Valuable addition.
And I like the positioning of the Power/Reset buttons. However, I'd ditch the LEDs and use buttons with integrated ring/dot (like the black aluminium ones that have become so common for instance).
If whoever is interested in your design has a production run long enough in mind, Apem makes a piezoelectric switch, in black anodized aluminium, chamfered and with blue dot that personally I think looks fantastic. Tried to source those for my current build, but they don't stock them, they manufacture them on-demand, and they weren't very keen on adjusting all their tooling to make 2
You can find the specification sheet here, scroll down to the third page, model PBAR6AF (pictured)
I don't like the port placement though. I've seen far too many front ports smashed because of plugged thumb drives/cameras/etc. + kids/pets/clumsy people.
