How can I judge trim quality from a photograph?

Look at the corners and the long runs rather than the overall room. Inside corners should be coped, outside mitres should be tight with no visible gap, and a long wall should show no obvious joint. Those three details tell you more than any wide shot.

Trim & Panelling

Trim and panelling projects are where carpentry quality is most visible, because every joint sits at eye level and nothing is hidden behind a door.

This category includes whole-house trim packages, wainscoting and panelled walls, coffered ceilings, and fluted or slatted feature walls. The measure of quality is simple: joints that were tight on installation day and are still tight after a Calgary winter.
