Recently, consensus building has become more and more important in the construction industry. As discussed under the performance design system, it is important to break down performance required under various construction environments and convert them into numerical values, and to represent such values on the performance matrix to be used for consensus building. In this research, we try to expand the use of the performance matrix so far discussed under the performance design system such that the matrix indicates aesthetic performance useful for consensus building. We propose specification rules based on the required level of performance, and review and verification methods. This research also shows the method of creating the aesthetic performance matrix used for consensus building regarding several aesthetic words converted from the design concept. Finally, we make verification aiming at consensus building among concerned parties based on the aesthetic performance matrix.
