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.

    I used to rent beach condos for a living. We actually had one with “extra seating”. The owners put a toilet—-on a raised platform, mind you—-in the living room, on the other side of the wall from the one in the bathroom. Not an extra tiny room with a toilet. Not even a privacy screen around it. A prominent “throne” out in the open, in the combo living/dining (the mind reels) room, directly across from the front door (oh, hello). I think people only rented it for the funny vacation story.
