design / organization
'Gestaltung' and 'Neugestaltung' can both describe the appearance, structure, or organization of something. The important difference is the 'neu' in 'Neugestaltung': it is about changing something existing and making it different. 'Gestaltung' can also mean the first planning or the current design, without something else having existed before. There is a risk of confusion when talking about design or organization. If something is being designed from scratch or for the first time, 'Gestaltung' usually fits. If something already exists and is being revised, 'Neugestaltung' is more precise.
