Konstantin Stepanovich Melnikov (Russian: Константин Степанович Мельников; August 3 [O.S. July 22] 1890 – November 28 1974) was a Russian architect and painter. His architectural work compressed into a single decade (1923–1933) placed Melnikov on the front end of 1920s avant-garde architecture. Although associated with the Constructivists Melnikov was an independent artist not bound by the rules of a particular style or artistic group.
