We want to renovate our bathroom and are currently considering how to make the best use of the space. There is a sloping ceiling that limits the usable area somewhat. The door opens inward and cannot be changed.

I have attached an initial sketch. The toilet needs to be positioned closer to the slope, but I am unsure about the minimum required height there.

Do you have any suggestions for improvement?

I would do it this way.

That was originally our idea, but then there would still be a gap under the slope. Or maybe I didn’t quite understand how you meant it with the shower?

What dimensions apply to the bottom side for the width?
230 cm (90 inches) total width including the slope? But then the stub with the window is not to scale, because the top side wall is actually 325 cm (128 inches) in total width.

That's right, there was a mistake. It is 280 cm (110 inches), and the section by the window is 45 cm (18 inches).

Why not like in the building plan?

Or like this with a 5-sided corner shower:

We would omit the bathtub (also for cost reasons). If you place the toilet under the window, it is immediately visible when entering, and then there is an unused gap next to the shower.
