#22Name made me expect a towering flat non-reflective black column.
The name is inspired from this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_monolith

#23Very pretty. Hilariously dangerous and user unfriendly for anyone with kids.

#24My friend swears by his mostly open air case, albeit somewhat more traditionally shaped. A couple of notes from his setup:
1) It has a glass panel on the largest side side, but is open on the other sides. This prevents a lot of obvious failure cases.
2) It is wall mounted. This keeps it off the floor and away from associated detritus.
Case looks really cool though. Best of luck!

Thanks a lot :) I'm actually working on other concepts that don't sit on the table. This is just the beginning.

#27I love these open air style designs. It's reminds me of Yuel Beast's Motif Monument too. https://yuelbeast.com/motif-monument

#29Cool idea but not something I’d find functional in my environment. I personally find this messy and not at all stylish. I would also be constantly fighting tumbleweeds of golden retriever hair clogging everything up. I wish them the best of luck.
Maybe if the demo unit had better cable management. Open air frames definitely have a market, so it has some potential. But yeah, it's not for me either.
Yep, same. From a design perspective, it looks hideous.
