William Baldwin Dowse
William Dowse's drawing, although statically divided into quarters, achieves dynamic equilibrium through the placement of small inserts in three of the quadrants. The stylistic freedom of Dowse's drafting style and his interesting additions to the drawing, such as the man standing in the archway, make it unique among the student theses of this period. His is one of the few thesis drawings that shows the entire design on a single sheet. Upon graduating, Dowse did not practice architecture, but worked as a bank clerk for two years and was subsequently employed with the Metropolitan Rubber Company in Boston and New York City.
