From the moment you arrive at Ellard, you're instantly trans-ported to a gentler time and place. A sense of days gone by.
And that's no accident. Nestled along the banks of theChattahoochee River, this remarkable new community has beenmeticulously designed and strategically planned with a singular goalin mind - recapturing and enhancing the spirit of the ClassicAmerican Neighborhood.
Here, a host of delightful public spaces and pedestrian-friendly walkways foster a sense of community and kinship. Like the celebrated neighborhoods of yesterday, Ellard is filled with lush,grassy parks that welcome family and friends for picnics, strolls andrecreational activities. Linking neighboring homes and public gathering spaces, Ellard's expansive sidewalks -- insulated from thestreet by setbacks and trees -- actually seem to favor the pedestrianover the automobile.
Even the home design harkens back to an era when architectur-al detailing and lasting value took precedence over sleek styles andaccelerated construction times. An era when designers and builderstook pride in and stood behind their workmanship. That's why theirhomes, found in some of America's most acclaimed neighborhoods,have stood the test of time and emerged as the architectural landmarks of today. Those same principles hold true at Ellard. Fromdevelopment to design, each Ellard home is constructed of only thefinest materials and supported by a strong commitment to designintegrity and quality craftsmanship.
And, because it is a Stephen Fuller Mosaic Community, Ellardexudes an underlying sense of continuity and order. One that actu-ally defined those Classic American neighborhoods. And one that'sbeen woefully missing from many modern neighborhoods today.That's because Ellard is the culmination of a shared design vision.Unlike some developments, where architects, land planners, devel-opers and landscape architects work independently of one another,the innovative Mosaic concept brings all participants together fromthe outset to carefully coordinate the look and feel of a community.
As a result, homes have been designed to complement oneanother - without sacrificing their sense of individuality.Compatible floor plans, elevations, materials, even color selectionshave all been carefully planned and coordinated so that as newhomes join the community, they'll only enhance the surroundings.
In addition, a careful balance of scale and proportion are also atwork in Ellard. Ellard's designers are keenly aware of the crucialrelationship between lot size, location and the size and scale of ahome's architectural detailing. So you won't find design techniquesused strictly to respond to the latest design trends. What you willfind, however, are entry porches, walls, windows, doors and otherarchitectural elements that truly maximize the lot's size and comple-ment the overall home design.
Explore Ellard - a new neighborhood destined to be a classic forgenerations to come.

The Vision: Reviving the Classic American Neighborhood
In any American city older than 75
years, there are majestic neighborhoods
where manmade architecture was created
to blend with God given nature.
2
In most developments, all of the participants —
land planners, developers, architects, landscape
architects, builders, marketing experts, and others — work
independently of each other. Each trade executes their
responsibilities without a true sense of the overall vision.
At Ellard however, the participants have worked as a
team, right from the beginning, to contribute toward a
shared vision of excellence. It’s a philosophy that has
made the most of the land, of everyone’s talent, and of
the resulting community.
For example, the land planning firm has worked
hand-in-hand with the architectural firm — not just to
randomly lay out lots and design attractive homes, but to
plan homes that are grouped together, with common
connections, maximizing the natural surroundings.
Ellard homes are perfectly oriented to the available lots.
harmonizing with the land, with each other, and with the
total aesthetics of the community.
Land planning and design are just two aspects of the
total vision concept as practiced by Stephen Fuller and
the Ellard Development team. As first one expert and
then another adds their contributions, thousands of
coordinated details combine to create a community that’s
greater than the sum of its individual parts.

by participants licensed under the Stephen Fuller

This book is the first step in the Mosaic process. It pro-
vides the imagery of what Ellard will be upon completion, so
that every firm involved in the design, creation, construction
or sales and marketing of Ellard can fundamentally understand
the community we aspire to build.
As a prerequisite all participants have agreed to the philoso-
phy the Vision Book describes, and are dedicated to its success-
ful execution.
Ellard is not a typical suburban community. This Vision
Book defines what sets it apart from common neighborhoods.
For those who appreciate the differences, this book will spur
enthusiasm for the cascading levels of detail to follow. If you
find that you’re not inclined to join us in this exceptional com-
munity then we hope our Vision Book has introduced con-
cepts that you may choose elsewhere.

This book contains the information needed to understand
the community elements found in the public spaces at Ellard.
Foremost among these are the Caretaker’s House, The
Conservatory, and the numerous parks that Ellard affords its
residents. Furthermore, community signage, street lighting,
and park structures are defined in this volume.
A vital section of this book describes the lot protocol.
Here we illustrate each lot’s physical characteristics, including
topography, views, and setbacks. Years of careful study have
given us the ability to group subdivision lots into specific
types. We are able to code these lot types and match them to
compatible types of homes. This ensures that the home is not
only beautifully fitted to its particular lot, but that each home
complements those surrounding it. Typical suburban commu-
nities simply do not consider issues such as these. The
Community Construction Document Book helps to secure the
harmony between homes and community amenity elements.
Stephen Fuller Mosaic approach is explained in a
comprehensive set of documents that serve to guide
all trades in the creation of Ellard.

Surprisingly, when most new home communities are
conceived today, only amenities such as entrance walls, club-
houses, and sales centers are cohesively designed. Typically
various individuals introduce home plans with no clear vision
for recommended style, size, shape, height, materials, or
garage treatments. Each individual seems to have a differ-
ent perspective of what is appropriate. The result is
reviews, changes, expenses, and consequently delays in the
Architectural Review Procedure.
Our third book helps to remedy these problems. The
Home Plan Library illustrates homes that fit a particular price
range, lot type, and buyer demographic. The process of design-
ing a home and customizing it to fit one’s tastes is simplified
through the use of this interactive format.
Each entry in the Home Plan Library is designed to perfect-
ly fit a coded lot, and to blend with the character of the
community at large. Families can make richly individualized
housing statements, thanks to the wealth of complementary
styles and details in the Home Plan Library.
Ensuring conformity without monotony, the Library is an
excellent way to meet the architectural needs of the community.
Most importantly, it streamlines the process of choosing and
customizing a beautiful home.
Included in the Home Plan Library is the master list of
specifications and choices for the homes and individual sites
in Ellard. All color and material options such as brick choices,
paint colors, roofing materials, and fencing are found in this
section of the Home Plan Library. Primarily, the selections
concentrate on exterior finishes; however they also describe
minimum interior specifications and guidelines that ensure
consistent quality among builders. As always, the goal is to
allow individuals a wide range of personal expression,
while retaining overall thematic continuity.

YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED to journey through
our classic American neighborhood nestled along the banks
of the Chattahoochee. Ellard represents a return to the charm and
grace found in historic towns like Old Roswell and Madison, Georgia,
or perhaps in Middleburg or Fredericksburg, Virginia. From these we
seek to capture the grace and tradition of times past to create a family
heirloom, a source of pride and enjoyment for future generations.
To determine just the right format for this mixed-use develop-
ment, we formed a highly specialized and skilled design and
development team: Land Planner and Civil Engineer, Ron Sprinkle and
John Didicher - Civil Design, Inc.; Residential, Designer Stephen Fuller -
Design Traditions; Landscape Architect, Alec Michaelides - Land Plus
Associates, Ltd; Developers, Pete Calabro and Bob Button — Habersham
Investment & Development Corp., and Garry Osley, Associate.
As a patron of environmental stewardship, we collaborated closely
with the Ellard family heirs (Richard and Peggy Hatch) who have
owned the property since the early 1900’s. From approximately 165
acres of land available for development, we chose to utilize approxi-
mately 70 acres for the construction of Ellard, leaving approximately
62.5 acres in its natural state as protected greenbelts and wildlife pre-
serves. An overall total of 90+ acres of open space will include neigh-
borhood parks, jogging trails and walking paths, providing recreation-
al and social activity.
Realizing that we had to condense generations of spontaneous
growth into a few years of development, we have taken great care not
to stray from the lessons taught by history. We visited older neigh-
borhoods and villages, revitalized neighborhoods, and newly complet-
ed communities constructed in the Neo-Traditional style. We visited
sites along the East Coast in the Carolinas, Virginia, and Maryland and
then ventured south to Orlando and the Florida Panhandle. To learn
how to build urban cohesiveness, we measured pedestrian-friendly
streets, varying setbacks, and sidewalks. We studied how directional

and identification signs can be not only informative, but works of art
as well.
These elements will become part of Ellard, creating a community
with a sense of time and charm, combining a divergence of ideas while
maintaining integrity in the overall aesthetic quality.
The synergism that will drive Ellard is its mixed-use components,
the first of which is a 107 single-family custom home community of
varying lot sizes. The residential layout will utilize traditional
elements including narrow streets, intimate parks, tree lined sidewalks,
porches and verandahs, period street lighting, and build-to lines that
draw homes close to the avenues and walkways. These elements
enhance a pedestrian-friendly environment and encourage neighbor-
hood gatherings. Architectural styles such as Classical, Colonial,
Georgian, Victorian, as well as Early Classical and Greek Revival will
be compatibly mixed to give each street its own special architectural
integrity. The entrance into Ellard will be through a gated portico
extending from the Caretaker's House. The Conservatory will provide
an elegant setting for social and business gatherings and from it,
residents can view the river, swim in the Art-Noveau pool and enjoy a
game of tennis at the lighted tennis courts.
The next component is a proposed commercial Village within
walking distance of the residential community. The Village is planned
for retail shops, a café, fine restaurants, offices, perhaps an inn,
professional services (including day care) and a community meeting
hall. Architecturally compatible Townhomes and an Assisted Living
Facility will complement the Village. Each component is integral to
the distinction of Ellard, where people can live, socialize, conduct
business and enjoy community.
Ellard is not for everyone, but for those who are looking for the
rare and exceptional, Ellard will provide gracious living, timeless
beauty, an opportunity to build not just a home, but a life . . .a legacy
in the making.

In a notable career, Stephen Fuller has received more than
40 awards of excellence for superior design, including three
“Best in American Living” commendations from the National
Association of Home Builders.
Professional accolades are gratifying.
Just as meaningful however, are the countless affirmations
Steve hears from families who draw unending pleasure and
comfort from his creativity. In a world populated with me-too
inspirations, Stephen Fuller’s instinctively fresh approach gives
his designs noted personality.
With Stephen, there’s always a surprising newness, even in
his respectful interpretations of long-loved styles. Instead of
expected corners, you’ll see sunlight bathing open spaces. In
place of rote predictability, you’ll find sensitive responses to
family needs. And in every room, you’ll spot the signature
accents that underscore true quality.
Through his community home designs, Stephen Fuller
gives full expression to an abiding philosophy: that a home
should live in harmony with its surroundings, and that tradi-
tion should live in harmony with time. A Stephen Fuller
home is more than a residence; it’s a thoughtful balance
between nature and man. It’s a place where the best of the past
coexists with the demands -- and opportunities -- of today.
These are the secrets that open the door to livable, functional
style that is always elegant and distinctive.

Creating a spectacular community requires a unique sensitivity
to the environment. It means working closely with the Corps
of Engineers, Fulton County and the Atlanta Regional Commission to
minimize the impact on the environment. It means saving the wetlands,
identifying the flood plain, planning lakes and detention areas and
saving trees, all while creating beautiful home sites for the builders and
the homeowners.
It takes education and experience to create a truly successful com-
munity. John Didicher, founder and C.E.O. of Civil Design, Inc. has
been designing every stage of residential development for thirty years.
He is a registered civil engineer and surveyor whose interest in quality
development has led him to serve on the Fulton County Development
Advisory Board for many years.
So often today one hears comments like,
"That land was so beautiful, why did they
have to ruin it?" or "It seems they just
keep building and building and don't even
have a plan."
His associate, Ronald Sprinkle, is president of Civil Design, Inc. and
a registered landscape architect. Ron has been planning unique in-fill and
large multi-use communities for fifteen years. Ron also serves as a mem-
ber of the advisory board for the Atlanta Regional Commission and is
on the statewide Georgia Department of Transportation, Transportation
Enhancement Advisory Panel.
Ellard is a spectacular community. It was designed by John and Ron
using their combined years of engineering and land planning experience.
The preservation of the environment is apparent as one drives through
this development. The ultimate benefactors, however, are the residents.
They will enjoy the exquisite beauty of their environment as owners of
the Ellard community.

The illustrations and definitions found in the
following pages form the basis of the architectural
guidelines at Ellard.
The foremost goal is to create a cohesive community. The
land plan, the location, and the amenities already inspire a tradi-
tional neighborhood, however the most prominent characteristic
of a heirloom community is the home.
It is important to note, however, that regardless of the style
and character of architecture the use of high quality materials will
OVERVIEW OF ARCHITECTURAL STYLES
GEORGIAN ENTRANCE
allow a properly balanced home to realize its superior value. The
style of Ellard is drawn from the early architecture of America; the
classical architecture of the Georgian period, the Colonial architec-
ture of New England, and the Virginia Homesteads of the 1800’s.
These points of departure are similar in character. In fact, many of
the details generated by these styles will be repeated throughout
Ellard. There are, of course, distinctions among these and the fol-
lowing pages will discuss each of the selected styles and details
found at Ellard.

The two main characteristics that define a New England Colonial
house are the use of shingled walls and the gambrel roof. These homes
take their inspiration from the Northeastern states, where the influences of
the Dutch combined different roof shapes and details with Colonial
details. Another predominate feature of this style is the use of a can-
tilevered second floor above the first floor allowing the use of brackets,
pendants, and bay windows.
NEW ENGLAND COLONIAL

To the left is a gambrelrake detail.
To the right is a droppendant.
The Georgian homes at Ellard
are characterized by their formality.
Homes revolve symmetrically
about the central axis, celebrated
through the use of temple style
porches. The homes are predomi-
nately brick with strictly propor-
tioned details that tend to be more
elaborate than many other styles.
All wood columns should be turned and classically propor-
tioned, shutters should be paneled, railings should have more elaborate
designs or turned classical balusters, and cornice trims have heavier or
more elaborate moulding than other styles.

Classical pediment

These homes are reminiscent of those built for the gentry of the
Tidewater region. These are not as formal as the Georgian homes; detail-
ing is simplified, and the homes mix lap siding and brick. Homes may
have a symmetrical, central mass, or be off center in their composition.
Although the detailing is less formal, the home is still classical in proportion.

It is typical to find variation in
chimney shapes among historical styles.
The Colonial chimney uses simple shapes
asymmetrically organized. The Georgian
style is more formal, and makes use of finer
detailing. New England Colonial chimneys
are veneered with siding or shingles, howev-
er, brick is an acceptable option.
Prefabricated chimneys must cover the spark
arrestor, and masonry chimneys may have
decorative pipe caps.
Chimneys that are expressed
on outside walls must be supported from
the ground.
Metal shroud cap Terra cotta pipe cap
Colonial chimney
BRICK DETAILS
The brick used at Ellard should fit the
period of architecture, and must look as
though it is mould-made or hand pressed with
grapevine or scored joints. Brick colors should
be red earth tones. Successful brick detailing
should emulate masonry construction. For
example, windows should have arches that sup-
port the masonry load carried above the opening.

Every feature of an Ellard
home is built to classic pro-
portions and arranged on
the facade in an ordered
pattern. Traditional win-
dows have mullions that are
vertical in orientation in their shape. Windows are then aligned verti-
cally, with smaller windows above larger ones. If a window has shut-
ters they should be sized to be openable with the appropriate hard-
ware. Whether a window is in a brick or wood wall, each window
should have an arch or
header above as well as a
wood or brick sill. The
size of the window arch
should be in proportion
to the size of the window.

ACCENT WINDOWS
Illustrated here are
accent windows typical of the
quality of Ellard. The
Palladian window is extremely
formal and is appropriate for
the Georgian style. However,
similar windows can be detailed
to fit in any of the homes at
Ellard. This process can be
used for many of the accent
windows found in the Ellard
Home Plan Library.

These illustrations show various
dormers that accent the homes at Ellard.
Successful dormers begin with a well-
proportioned window and Colonial mul-
lions. The surrounding trim should stay
close to the window. Dormers should be
set only on high pitch roofs, so that the
sides do not become elongated. The
scale of the dormer roof should not be
too large, and the pitch of the dormer roof
should match the pitch of the main roof.
