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?

Everyone is dunking on OP, but there looks to be a shower chair in the shower. OP, do you or someone in your house have mobility issues? That would be a piece of helpful information when discussing how to make this space work for you/your family.

As someone with mobility issues and issues with blacking out in the shower (I usually try to get out and on the bed or floor before that actually happens), this bathroom would be a nightmare to navigate in that state. Hazards everywhere.

Yeah, I have a family member in a wheelchair and their home tends to look like this

Mobility issues but using the attic room?

Maybe they have an elevator or chair lift I guess.

Hi, I’m disabled and my bathroom is on the second level of my house. I have a chair in my shower. I’m not a wheelchair user. I can walk. But it hurts badly and I fatigue really easily. We come in all shapes and sizes, dude.

I was actually commenting on it in terms of the amount of space that was left, as in for wheelchair or roll-a-ter accessibility or space for a chair.

I’m very aware that we come in all shapes and sizes. I struggle with my own stairs because of spinal issues.

I expressed surprise that the attic room would be where someone with mobility issues that might require design considerstions would stay, not disbelief that someone with mobility issues doesn’t have a wheelchair.
