In which space is smoking allowed?

In the context of the Estidama Pearl Building Rating System, smoking is typically allowed in designated areas that adhere to specific regulations aimed at enhancing indoor air quality and promoting health. Within residential buildings, smoking may be permitted in private areas such as individual units or balconies, as these spaces are often less regulated compared to public or commercial areas.

Residential buildings often have the flexibility to designate spaces where residents can smoke, provided they comply with local laws and regulations that could include proper ventilation and separation from non-smoking areas. This is in contrast to other spaces, such as commercial buildings, public parks, and office spaces, which commonly have stricter regulations to protect public health and ensure a smoke-free environment for all occupants.

Thus, in the context of where smoking is allowed, residential buildings typically offer more leniency compared to other types of spaces.
