LIZ CARROLL INTERIORS was founded in 2008 with a desire to celebrate relaxed and refined living. The multi-layered experiences the firm designs are energized by the people who live in them, highlighting their journeys and lifestyles through an empathic connection between craftsmanship, texture, color, light, and scale. Their work relies on a sense of the possible – if something doesn’t exist, they create it. LCI’s reputation for interiors with a modern sense of easy luxury and welcoming appeal is grounded in their ability to discover moments of possibility that reflect their clients’ lifestyles while serving everyday needs. By working closely with architects, builders, and craftsmen, and drawing from a vast array of exclusive to-the-trade vendors, Liz Carroll Interiors is committed to creating sensitive spaces that are utterly unique.
Liz Carroll
Principal
Liz Carroll is known for balancing refined beauty with relaxed livable environments. Expressive narratives are her signature, combining multi-layered juxtapositions of material, color, and form that complement the architecture while providing moments of surprise that resonate with her clients. Liz believes that home is an idea that goes far beyond what you put into it; it resides in the stories her clients share, a deep understanding of their goals, and imaginative designs that highlight the unique characters living there. She finds the key to what makes her clients feel they belong in a space and works with them every step of the way to achieve it.
Elizabeth DiPinto
Senior Designer
Elizabeth’s interest in design is rooted in the combination of creativity and practicality that distinguishes it as its own art form. Helping a client’s dreams become reality while watching a project go from concept to installation is the most rewarding aspect of her work. She also loves working with numbers to keep projects on time and on budget. Elizabeth believes one of the most important things to know as a designer is what and where to source for clients and how each detail works within the whole. She earned a BS in Agricultural Business Management from North Carolina State University and a BA in Interior Design from Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design.
Margaret Ann Stubblefield
Senior Designer
Originally from Burlington, NC, Margaret spent her childhood and ensuing years traveling throughout the United States and Europe, developing her love of architectural details, furnishings, and history. As a child, she watched her two designer aunts at work and began to rearrange rooms for fun. Margaret earned her B.S. degree in Communications with a minor in Public Relations from East Carolina University and a B.A. in Interior Design from Randolph Community College of Art and Design. She quickly learned that if you can create an atmosphere that is true to the client, they will enjoy it for years to come. She believes that good design is rooted in color theory and being able to source the best furnishings for the project. She draws inspiration from designers such as Amanda Lindroth, the Nassau and Palm Beach-based designer for her elegant and simple style.
Parlett Fritz
Strategic Operations Director
Parlett has always loved design and as a child would spend her spare time babysitting so she could redecorate her room. She studied Hospitality at East Carolina University where she learned how to plan projects meticulously. Her lifelong passion for design brought her to LCI where she contributes her skills to the smooth running of the projects. Install day is her favorite – it’s rewarding, fun, and exciting to see the client’s faces when they walk into their new homes.
Chandler Skipper
Expeditor
With several family members in the real estate industry, Chandler was raised to appreciate architecture and the elements of design and soon intuited that the spaces we live and work in have a profound impact on our mood and attitude. Chandler graduated from Meredith College in Raleigh, NC with a BS in Interior Design. The Art Deco movement inspires her because of the era’s glitz and glamour, as well as its use of bold colors. She looks forward every day to working alongside the LCI team to provide quality design services to their clients.
Jennings Boukather
Project Coordinator
Jennings discovered a passion for interior design at a young age. She spent her childhood in Gastonia, NC poring over design magazines with her mother, and together they would transform old pieces of furniture into new and distinctive pieces. After earning a degree from Cape Fear Community College, she joined Liz Carroll Interiors and is continually inspired by the amazing and talented women she works with, refining her coastal yet clean and traditional style. She loves knowing that she has helped her clients achieve a comfortable, livable home that functions both aesthetically and practically.
Maggie Smith
Design Assistant
Maggie grew up in Hampstead, NC in a family who often worked with interior designers to transform their home. With a background in art, Maggie attended Cape Fear Community College to earn an Associates Degree in Interior Design and a Diploma in Kitchen and Bath Design. She loves the storytelling aspect of her work – really listening to the clients’ hopes, wants, and needs so that by installation day they can fully experience how each individual selection builds on the others to faithfully reflect the ongoing story of their lives.
