Tõnu Mellik

Tõnu Mellik (12 May 1934 Tartu – 3 June 1993 Tallinn) was an award-winning Estonian architect active in the mid-twentieth century.

In 1953 he went on to study at the State Art Institute of the Estonian SSR (ERKI) and ultimately graduated in 1959.

He assisted in the development of the towns of Kiili, Kohila, Kuusalu, Loksa, Taebla, Viru-Jaagupi, Haabneeme, and Padise.

[1] Mellik participated in developing the Tallinn General Plan and in the reconstruction of the city center in 1968.

Soviet strictures did not permit architects to freely create their own works by exercising their own vision.
