Lizz Luckhart Schleifer, has been known as a “Southern Tastemaker” for over 20 years now. She began her career by founding Southern Protocol in December 2003. As an award winning event designer, Lizz has been quoted in Martha Stewart Weddings, Charleston Weddings, Southern Bride and Glamour Magazine. Featured in every print magazine and design blog in the nation and having designed hundreds of events, Lizz then opened a successful boutique in 2014. Presented with an opportunity to sell the boutique in late 2016,  Lizz seized the day to return to her passion of {just}home design.

Re-branded as Lizz Luckhart Designs, Lizz prides herself on helping her clients cultivate their own personal home style. She subscribes to the “dopamine design” theory that creating spaces that fill you with joy is the key to good design. Be inspired by trends, but not led by them and using color, patterns, textures and accessories in your home that you are drawn to, goes beyond aesthetics and you truly connect with your home.

If Lizz isn’t creating something, she is with her three amazing children, Jack, Charlie and Lola, her cocker spaniels Cash, Hank, June, Woods, and Boss and, of course, her darling husband Brett. Lizz's favorite holiday is "all of them", she drinks too much Diet Coke, she is obsessed with "Southern Gothic" novels, Dorothy Draper, Lilly Pulitzer and Ron Swanson
