'that's aesthetically pleasing' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'us uses no building' is the wordplay.
'building' indicates anagramming the letters.
'us'+'uses'+'no'='ususesno'
'ususesno' with letters rearranged gives 'SENSUOUS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sensuous that I've seen before include "Keenly responsive to the pleasures of the senses" , "Attractive to touch, taste, etc" , "Appealing in sexy way" , "Luscious and appealing to bodily stimuli" , "Pleasant to feel" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times and the Irish Times (Crosaire).
