The following areas are to be excluded from gross floor area for the purpose of computing floor area ratio: (FAR)

• Basement, underground parking, and attic spaces.

• Porches, balconies, patios, breezeways, and decks (as well as overhangs, eaves, cantilevers, awnings and similar

features) with a "solid" cover but not enclosed by "solid" walls on more than two sides.

• gardens which do not have a "solid" cover.

• Parking structures and garages which are incidental to a primary use on the same site in multi-family, commercial,

office, industrial and public/semi-public uses.

• Air spaces within buildings such as vaulted ceilings or the air space above an atrium in an office or museum building.

More specifically, the floor area shall be counted at the actual floor area only and not in the air spaces above.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
