Floor area ratio - irrelevantSite coverage ratio is irrelevant if there is no extension, floor area ratio is irrelevant if there is no additional storey or any alteration to raise the roof.

Floor plans for the ground floor and the upper floor are not really finalized, and we would appreciate ideas on whether or how more could be made of them. Basically, happy to help, but accurate plans are helpful:
