    「remodel」常指「改變一棟建築(或空間)的形狀、結構或外觀」——不只刷漆,而是調整格局、牆面、房間怎麼用。核心畫面可以想成「把舊的空間模型重新塑成新的樣子」。常見說法:remodel the kitchen / basement、be extensively remodelled。跟 decorate 容易搞混:decorate 多半是粉刷或掛好看的東西;remodel 更常講「改建格局」。跟 renovate 很近:renovate 偏「修好、更新」;remodel 更強調「改形狀/改結構」。跟 rebuild 不同:rebuild 幾乎是重新蓋;remodel 是在原有建築上改。

core核心畫面

One way to picture remodel: the walls stay, the shape changes — you take what is already there and it into a different arrangement. Next to renovate (repair it back to good condition), remodel is the one that changes the layout rather than restoring the old one.

可以想成 remodel 是「牆還在,形狀變了」:拿現成的東西重新安排成另一個樣子。跟 renovate(修回良好狀態)擺在一起看,remodel 改的是格局,renovate 修的是原本的樣子。
