A member of the American Institute of Architects and the Architectural League, he primarily designed school and office buildings. Later in his career Mathesius acted as chairman of the New York Architect's Code Committee and was the Northeast Regional Chairman of the Federal Housing Administration. Charles Alonzo Rich, previously associated with the firm of Lamb & Rich, practiced independently after that firm's dissolution in 1899. In 1913 Rich and Mathesius joined in partnership. Their collaboration produced a neo-Renaissance-style studio building in the Upper West Side/ Central Park West Historic District.
