Internal corners in a panelled wall
A mitred internal corner in veneer opens up as the panels move, and once it opens there is no way to replace one panel without disturbing its neighbour.
Use a controlled butt or reveal at the internal corner rather than a mitre, and detail it so a single panel can be replaced.
A reveal absorbs movement that a mitre fights, and it keeps each panel independently removable — the corner stays serviceable for the life of the wall.

Shadow gap at the floor, not a plinth
A pale carcass that sits directly on the floor shows the mop line — and it shows it at the eye level of someone seated, which is where people actually look.

A curtain track screwed under a finished ceiling is visible, collects dust on its face, and leaves no room for an LED wash — so the ceiling and the window never read as one designed plane.
