What about *areas adjacent to areas*? > [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Editing_Standards_and_Conventions#Tagging_Areas
The recommended gap between areas and ways is to represent a gap which is actually there in real life - eg the park along side a road does not finish at the centerline of the road, which is where the way (road) is put. If you are marking adjacent buildings that share a wall, then there is no actual gap to represent, so don't put one. In the same way, if you are marking a way and adjacent area that does not have a gap (eg a park and a fence) then I wouldn't put a gap in there either.
