The term „aesthetics“ derives from the Greek aísthēsis meaning „perception“, „sensation“ and has been a doctrine of visible beauty until the 19th century. That doctrine mainly focused upon the laws and the harmony in nature and art. Colloquially, aesthetics is nowadays mostly as a synonym for „nice“, „tasteful“ or „attractive“. In science „aesthetics“ means the amount of attributes, which decide how people perceive objects.
