reconceives

Envisions anew entirely

Reconceives means to conceive again—to form a fresh understanding or imagine something anew.

The word typically describes rethinking something fundamental: The director reconceives the play as a meditation on grief.

Where reconsider suggests weighing options again, reconceive implies reimagining from the ground up.
