Erich Mendelsohn (1887–1953) stands as one of the most remarkable architects of the 20th century, renowned for his exceptional versatility. His architectural oeuvre seamlessly harmonizes contrasting elements such as organic and rational building, technological innovation, and a regionalist perspective, as well as individual form and universal expression. Fleeing from Germany in 1933, he sought refuge in England and Palestine before ultimately relocating to the United States. To this day, his influential work continues to resonate.
This comprehensive monograph presents a comprehensive documentation of all 70 known completed buildings by Mendelsohn, encompassing text and images. In addition, it delves into his design approach and personal life through two essays. Furthermore, a newly compiled register catalogs all of his unbuilt projects, accompanied by numerous new photographs by Carsten Krohn, newly drawn plans, and historical illustrations.
Mendelsohn's architectural legacy is a testament to his ability to bridge diverse disciplines and create buildings that are both aesthetically stunning and functionally innovative. His work exemplifies the fusion of tradition and modernity, showcasing his profound understanding of architectural principles and his commitment to pushing the boundaries of design. Through his extensive body of work, Mendelsohn has left an indelible mark on the architectural landscape, inspiring generations of architects and shaping the future of the profession.
