LONDON -- A Kickstarter campaign has been launched to try and fund a crazy golf course in the heart of England's capital.

Spearheaded by Paul Smith and featuring a design from late architect Zaha Hadid, the campaign was started by the London Design Festival and aims to raise money for a course based in Trafalgar Square.

Here are some of the concept designs for the various holes.
