Abstract
It is important to maximize the design life of buildings in response to the increasing awareness of environmental issues. Consequently, there is now a demand for the aesthetic qualities of buildings to be maintained for a long period. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the color properties of brickwork and the subjective evaluation of age and other visual qualities. The influence of color coordination on aging and desirability is clarified through the results of sensory tests and systematized for the long-term management of building facades.
