Rudolphe Lawrence Daus (1854–1916) was an American architect based in Brooklyn, New York City. He designed the 13th Regiment Armory in Brooklyn, now the Pamoja House for homeless men, and the Lincoln Club. He also designed several libraries. He was a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects.
Daus was born in Mexico to a German Catholic family of Jewish descent and studied in Europe before working for Richard Morris Hunt and George B. Post. He established his own firm in 1884.
Carl Westman worked at his firm, as did Fay Kellogg at the start of her career. Daus died in Paris in 1916.
