reenvision
Picture it anew
To reenvision something is to imagine it anew, often with significant changes to its original form or purpose: The director reenvisioned the classic play for a modern audience.
The word implies more than minor revision—a fundamental rethinking of how something could be conceived or presented.
Also spelled re-envision.
