Casa Luce is an extensive renovation of a mid-century modern home in the Catalina foothills. Originally designed and built by Tucson modernist Tom Gist, and characterized by Gist's trademark earthen walls of burnt adobe supporting a low-slung roof, the 1960's home was nevertheless in need of a significant update. The goal of the redesign was to redefine the essence of the home — la essenza.
