Outdoor living space at dusk with architectural lighting and concealed landscape audio

About Us

A design-led approach to outdoor living.

The Smart Living Group plans, installs and supports outdoor audio, lighting, television and shade systems — built to feel like part of the home, not added on afterward.

Our Mission

We believe an outdoor space should feel finished, not wired together.

Too often, outdoor technology is treated as an afterthought — speakers bolted to walls, fixtures aimed into people's eyes and cabling left exposed. We take a different path: every system is designed around the property first, so the result looks intentional and works the way you expect.

We are a design-led outdoor technology company serving the Dallas–Fort Worth area. Our focus is narrow on purpose: outdoor audio, lighting, television and shade, done well, rather than a little of everything. That focus lets us plan each system carefully and hold a high standard on every install.

How We Work

What sets our process apart.

Design-Led

We plan every system around your architecture, landscape and sightlines before a single fixture is placed.

Detail-Driven

Beam angles, speaker coverage, mounting heights and cable paths are worked out in advance, not improvised on site.

Built to Last

Weather-resistant equipment, sealed connections and clean terminations so the installation holds up outdoors.

Here Afterward

We stay available after the install to keep the system simple, updated and ready to use.

The Consultation Process

What to expect, from first call to final walkthrough.

A clear, low-pressure path so you always know the next step and what your outdoor space will become.

01

First Conversation

We learn how you use your outdoor space, what you want to improve and the results you have in mind.

02

On-Site Walkthrough

We walk the property, note sightlines, power and structure, and identify where systems should live.

03

Design & Proposal

You receive a clear plan and proposal covering equipment, placement, control and scope — no surprises.

04

Installation

Our team installs with concealed cabling and protected landscaping, then tunes everything on site.

05

Walkthrough & Support

We show you how everything works, confirm you are comfortable with it, and stay available afterward.

Who We Are

An established company that treats every project as its own.

We are a full team of designers, engineers and certified installers who care about the details most people never notice — where a speaker sits so the sound feels even, how a fixture is aimed so it flatters the architecture instead of blinding you, and how cabling is routed so nothing is left exposed. Those choices are what separate a finished outdoor space from a collection of gadgets.

With dedicated design, project management and service departments, we have the capacity to take on projects of any scale while giving each one the attention it deserves. A single point of contact coordinates your project from the first walkthrough to the final tuning, so you always know the next step and never get lost between departments.

Above all, we want the technology to feel effortless. When the lighting, sound and shade come on with a single tap and simply work night after night, we have done our job — and we stay available afterward to keep it that way.

Client Feedback

What clients say.

Homeowners across the Dallas–Fort Worth area on their outdoor living projects.

The landscape lighting completely changed how our backyard feels at night. Every tree and stone wall is lit exactly right, and you never see a single fixture glaring at you. It looks like it was always part of the house.
Marcus EllisonSouthlake, TX · Landscape Lighting
We wanted music by the pool without ugly speakers everywhere. They tucked everything into the planting beds and the sound is even across the whole yard. Our guests always ask where it's coming from.
Priya RaghavanColleyville, TX · Outdoor Audio
The outdoor TV on our covered patio is actually visible in daylight, which I didn't think was possible. Clean mounting, no wires showing, and one remote runs the whole thing. Football season is a lot better now.
Cole BennettFort Worth, TX · Outdoor TVs
From the first walkthrough to the final tuning, the same team handled everything and kept us in the loop. No hand-offs, no surprises on the invoice. Rare to find these days.
Danielle FosterDallas, TX · Full Outdoor System
The motorized shades on our terrace take the afternoon heat off completely and drop down for privacy with one tap. They even close on a schedule now. Worth every penny.
Jonathan PierceDenton, TX · Motorized Shades
They designed lighting, audio, and shades so everything comes on together with one scene. It's genuinely simple to use and it has worked flawlessly since day one. Highly recommend them.
