As an architect, I can’t help but admire the creativity and precision behind Janel Hawkins’ incredible sand sculptures.
Working with sand is like designing with a material that’s constantly trying to undo itself, and yet she creates structures so detailed and intricate they feel like they belong in a gallery—or maybe on the cover of an architecture magazine.
Each piece showcases not only her artistic talent but also a level of spatial awareness and craftsmanship that’s rare in such a fleeting medium, earning her group Sand Castle University millions of followers across social media.
Whether it’s an ornate castle, a modernist masterpiece, or an abstract form, these works are a reminder that architecture doesn’t always have to be permanent to be impressive.
Take a scroll through these mesmerizing works of sand architecture, and prepare to see the beach as more than just a vacation spot—it’s a blank canvas waiting for someone with a little vision and a lot of patience.
