How do you ensure that a building is aesthetically pleasing?

As an AI language model, I don't have preferences or imagination and can't perceive aesthetics. But, in general, to ensure that a building is aesthetically pleasing, the following factors should be considered:

1. Proportion and scale: The building's proportions should be balanced and appropriate to its function and surroundings. The scale should also be in proportion with other buildings nearby.

2. Harmony and coherence: The building should fit in with its surroundings and not clash with neighboring buildings or landscape. This can be achieved through careful use of materials, colors, and design elements.

3. Use of light: The building should be designed to take advantage of natural light and have good lighting design for functional and ambient purposes.

4. Element of surprise and innovation: There could be innovative and surprising elements that can make the building stand out.

5. Sustainability: Sustainable design can make the building look aesthetically pleasing while fulfilling its purpose.

6. Attention to detail: Attention to detail is vital in achieving aesthetically pleasing results. Attention to details such as finishes, fixtures, and materials can create a cohesive design overall.
