Hildi was unquestionably the most unconventional (i.e., daffy)
designer on the show.  She once created an 'oasis' which basically
was a floor covered in sand with walls painted like a circus tent.

And remember the time she glued hay to a wall?

Did the homeowner say to the designer,

"I want them eating out of my hand"?!

  Hands down, this last photo is the WORST example of 'edgy' design:

No, you don't need to see your ophthalmologist, you're not having

vision problems.  This 'creation' is titled Shaking by the late New
