Lian Li is one of the companies that always are on the forefront of case design and innovation. One of their trademarks is that they make cases in literally all shapes and sizes ranging from a near 3ft behemoth to a case the size of a big power supply. Another trademark of Lian Li's is that they love to use high quality materials which are usually followed by higher prices. Because of this, practically all of their cases are aluminum and its usually brushed. This results in a lighter and cooler case which in many cases also means that it is quieter.
