Concerning the thought of Erich Mendelsohn around the time when Einstein Tower, the masterpiece of Expressionism, was designed, the records of lectures and the personal letters etc. were analyzed in comparison to the visionary architectural sketches, and the theoretical base for the formation with curved surface was examined. As a result, it is clarified that there was a structure of synthesis based upon the dualism, namely, the pursuit of the monolithic unification by means of curved surface and the pursuit of the technological rationalism under the influence of the works by H. van de Velde and W. Gropius.

This paper has examined the sketches by Erich Mendelsohn for the Einstein Tower, classified them by formal features and performed the formal analysis of them. It has clarified various features from the analysis of the podium the expression of the continuation to the ground, from that of the tower the contrast between verticality and horizontality, and from that of the main body the rhythmic expression of masses and the delicate expression of lighted surface. And also characteristic aspects of his design method concerning symmetry, two-point perspective, effect of light on curved surface and linear expression were discussed.
