I believe that will depend on the method chosen.

You did say 13R, so isn't that a Residential calc then, all sprinklers in a 
compartment, to a max of 4?

The "outside" room, is not in the compartment.

So, Room Design is the overall method for this one.

BUT, these being minimum standards. You are free to do D/A should you choose.

I working on an apartment building (NFPA 13R) that has a room that is outside 
of the dwelling unit that is 532 sq.ft.. Do I hydraulic calculate all 
sprinklers in the room only or do I have to hydraulic calculate an area per 
NFPA 13?
