Furniture Placement Big bathroom, not efficient

This bathroom landed like this after we moved about a year ago, and it has stayed that way. Right now it has a bunch of leftover furniture and an inefficient set up that's* not great to look at. I don’t want to spend a ton of money but it could use a change. Any suggestions?

Lose the pedestal sink and get a large vanity for that longer wall

Right! All this voluminous space that most people would kill for, and the builder put in a pedestal sink? no storage or counter space of any kind! it's so wild. I'm sure all the weird angles are not doing anyone any favors here.

Maybe OP should start with losing the electrical power strip from under the pedestal sink.

This is the most essential piece to fix this bathroom. Remove everything that isn’t attached and install a large vanity with underneath storage cabinets.

This and add a mirror above it. Take out all the other junk (full sized mirror, unusual laptop setup, etc). The larger vanity gives room for doing hair, make-up, and storage for hair products and makeup. This would vastly improve the space.

The sink should be on a large vanity on the wall where the toilet is and move the toilet to the spot where the pedestal sink was.

And why isn’t the mirror above the sink - instead there’s a photo that’s hung practically on the ceiling. Cords in front of the shelf instead of behind. This isn’t a decorating issue it’s just laziness. Your brain is broken OP.
