Best case for this build?

First, let me say that I am fully aware of the upcoming Intel chipsets for 2015 and I did initially want an X99 build, but now that I have made up my mind on components I would love to hear feedback on the best CASE for this build.  I would like to avoid anything that looks like a stealth fighter or a gaming system.  I would prefer a clean looking tower with a nice glass/acrylic side panel. My only requirement is that I have access to two 5.25" slots on the exterior for my Blu-ray and multi card drives.
 
Thank you all in advance for taking the time to take a look at offer suggestions!

    Hello Teca,
     
     
    I believe you and I are already communicating via email. :-)
     
    I received your reply this morning, so I will be sure to make several recommendations to your build to improve it further. 
     
    Stay tuned!
