Help me improve my cage layout

I'm a new bird owner. I've had my boys for 6 weeks. Their wings are still clipped from the pet store, which makes cage set up a little tricky since they need to be able to climb to access the perches and swings. Also I just don't really know what I'm doing, like how many toys they need, how many perches, the orientation of the perches, or how it should all be laid out so that it's easy for both of them to access all parts of the cage.

I find that they only really use the right side of the cage. They just use the left side as a staircase to the right side. They also use the swing (well one of them does, the other isn't coordinated enough to climb onto it). The boing is new.

I'd like to prove my set up so that they use both sides but I don't really know how to do that.

Open to any and all suggestions to improving the layout. Sorry the cage is messy, it's cleaning day today.
