She start building the Crazy House or Hằng Nga Guest House since 1990 and target to complete by 2020. Resembling Gaudi and Dali touch, perhaps those of Disney fairy tales too, Nga's design features odd and weird looking shapes, branches and trunks, split yet interconnected levels, twist and turn tunnels, animal theme rooms, wooden carved furniture among others. Her design challenges your logic and concept of a house, one that is fun to visit.

The goal of the architecture was to bring people back to nature, to appreciate it and not destroy it. All of the windows and doors are unevenly shaped and branch like structures grow along the walls.

Each guestroom is themed around an animal, for example the bear room, the tiger room the ant room etc., with decor to match. Furniture inside the rooms is handcrafted and designed to fit the house’s abstract appearance.

Nga’s architecture wasn’t supported for many years by local authorities due to its unusual design. With private funding from friends and family she was able to continue building the house, and since the building has been highlighted in numerous travel guidebooks and features, bringing tourism to the city of Dalat.
