Real estate agents are the keepers of the keys - many keys. They get to see unique homes of all shapes and sizes, from modest to mansion, along with some truly interesting architectural choices and design ideas. Just like with fashion, everyone has their own idea of what works or not, and there are bound to be some design fails along the way - and real estate agents get a front-row seat to the madness.

Agent Venessa Van Winkle wanted to share just how weird and random the interior design of some houses are, so she called on her fellow home sellers to share photos with her of the bad, the ugly, and the bizarre. Scroll down below to look at these unbelievable home designs, and don't forget to upvote your fave funny pictures!

This is an art piece done by Makoto Egashira. She uses floral carpet to make sculptures, her work is amazing. Please check out her art, support the artist instead of just believing the photo.

All that pink stuff made me almost miss the fact that there is a bathtub next to the bed.

I would hazard a guess that you don't live in a room like this, you rent it by the hour.

This actually looks like a good idea. It removes that little line of light the peaks through the curtains.

I don't see what's that bad about it? It's a bathroom, you can put blinds on the windows and there's appropriate bath mats preventing slipping

What do I always want to do every time I go to the toilet? Climb two steps. What do I always want to do every time I go to the sink? Climb two steps. What do I always want to do every time I check myself in the mirror? NOT FALL DOWN TWO STEPS!

The toilet is there to use for a step to get in the tub. Because a step ladder would look weird.

My dad couldn't make it to that toilet. He has enough trouble im an average bathroom (they have the safety rails in their bathroom at home for him. ) pretty sure this would kill him.

Use toilet. Go down the stairs. Go up the stairs to the sink. Then take a bath next to the toilet.

There’s nothing actually wrong with this, there’s a lot of thought that’s gone into the design, It’s just a little bit over the top, but saying that it wouldn’t bother me,

The decoration by the tub looks like Godzilla is about to attack. You would have to be careful brushing your teeth, one step too far back and you'd have a head injury. The "tile" looks like the cheap stick on kind and they added random millwork that doesn't go with anything and has no purpose. I think someone must have gotten a Home Depot card and just went crazy and no idea why a contractor allowed them to elevate everything. Awful.

Although the toilet is a little too close to the bathtub for my taste. And extra 6" to the right would be an improvement.

LOL, at first glance I thought the wall decoration was dinosaurs (why is the palm tree monotone beige?) And I get, now, that the paint is supposed to be waves but they look fairly menacing. Lastly, I can easily see people accidentally falling down backwards when stepping back just an inch too far while brushing their teeth.

Those prints were very popular in the 80-ties (well at least in my country). Had a similar design for wall paper in my teeny-weeny room back then!
