Gordon Huether Website

"The iconic Texas longhorn, jauntily sitting atop the moon is a familiar and welcome symbol of Texas, and the moon’s curved profile resembles the letter “C” as in CityLine.

By incorporating playful elements like the steer and the moon, the sculpture embodies the true feel of CityLine, a work-live-play environment where active families and busy professionals gather and enjoy its plentiful amenities.

The Longhorn was digitally rendered, fabricated with CNC carved composite materials, treated with airbrushed paint detailing and then finished with layers of durable clear coat. The moon has an internal frame built with aluminum tubing that was then clad with high-density, hard-coated Styrofoam, patterned to mimic the moon’s surface. At night, Over the Moon is illuminated with color-rotating LED lighting."
