untidied
Left in disarray
Untidied describes something that has not been made tidy or put in order.
The word usually implies a space or collection of objects that remains in disarray: The bed sat untidied, sheets tangled from the night before.
Unlike *messy*, untidied suggests tidying was expected but hasn't happened yet.
