A monument to human comfort, architectural artistry, and high technology, Campbell Cliffs mesmerizes you from the moment you first encounter its powerful silhouette etched against the 20 cactus-clad acres that climb the dramatic peaks of Tucson’s Catalina Mountains. The modern masterpiece, brilliantly master-minded by revered Les Wallach, demonstrates the power of stone, masonry, and stucco when sensitively juxtaposed with the delicacy of wood, metal, and color. The indigenous elements play a vital role in the organic relationship that welds the structure to the earth. But beyond the 31,000 square feet of pure architecture lies a soul within. Twenty-four rooms served by two elevators pamper the owners and guests alike in a spectacular 3,000-square-foot (continued page 56) entertainment lounge, 65-foot art gallery, banquet room seating 300 for formal dinners, 1,200-square-foot commercial kitchen, theater, gym, office wing, wine cellar, and bedrooms dominated by a master wing with three sitting areas affording nonstop desert and city views—attended by two levels of staff quarters. The desert drama reaches its zenith on electrifyingly beautiful multilevel pool terraces backdropped by a tennis court. Here, whether by sunlight or starlight, it is easy to appreciate fully this unique synergy of man and nature and the seven-year dedication it took to produce what has come to be one of America’s treasures.
