Problem
Wherever two building parts meet, a raw, unresolved seam tends to remain — it looks accidental and makes the whole construction feel coarse and unfinished, however carefully the parts themselves were made.
Solution
Finish the joints between building parts with narrow strips of trim that frame the seams cleanly, giving the whole structure a fine, handmade scale wherever surfaces come together.
