Over the years, the lore surrounding this bunkeresque building has grown along with the neighborhood. The structure was built in 1919 as a candy-making factory, and eventually taken over by a Boston Symphony Orchestra conductor who added a greenhouse. According to longtime neighbors, the property was even once owned by two feuding brothers who nearly set it ablaze over a dispute. But the building’s eccentric past wasn’t what drew Paula Chauncey to buy it in 2011 when she was ready for something that suited her industrial-leaning aesthetic. Its layout would be the perfect place for her to carve out a live/work space with the help of ruhljahnes. The steel bookshelf shown here—a perfect combination of industrial function and sleek furnishing—is the defining line between her sleeping quarters and the rest of the home.
