Higgledy-piggledy
 
higgledy-piggledy referring rooms or the plan of a house.

"sin orden ni concierto" (random, unplanned)?
"a la buena de Dios" (unplanned, unintended, without reasoning it)?
"a como iban cayendo" (messy, unplanned)?

All your translations work.
The rooms seemed to be placed any which way, with no rhyme or reason.
The rooms were arranged helter-skelter.

it's quite a higgledy piggledy life...
Lo vi escrito en una pagina de facebook. Busca y rebusca en la red llegué a una conclusión muy mía, es decir, interpreté 'a higgledy piggledy life' como una una vida sin reglas ni normas; una vida relajada y sin preocupaciones.
¿Les parece bien?
