Woodworking Building a Home Remodeling

Trim help.... Pics in comments

last modified: 4 years ago

We are building a house and the trim on the stairs looks odd to me. I'm not sure what to suggest to the builder or if I should say anything at all. Does it look weird to anyone? I'm sure when it is painted it will look better but it looks funny, right?!
