According to the architecture critic, Carter Horsley, The Murano is named after the island near Venice famed for its colorful glassmaking. The building has a computerized lighting system for its striking curtain wall exterior and lobby that changes its hue every hour. The Murano's entry design also pays homage to Venice's romance by surrounding itself with water over which small bridges are provided for residents and guests. Between the "moat" and the sidewalk are sunken landscaped areas.
