Here's an interesting article from Mochizuki about it. Translation from /m/.

Mochizuki doesn't want to do the 'good punish evil' concept, but 'good and evil being two sides of the same coin' to emphasize the OG Kamen Rider 'evil origin concept', hence the devil contract

He also wanted to emphasize the concept of 'Kamen Rider being a lone hero' but instead of making them a pariah, he decided to explore a different kind of loneliness, which is why the family setting.

Both Shibasaki and Hanta are fans of public baths, hence the setting.

Mochizuki has been a fan of Hanta since he was a student

>His works depict the shameful and dark parts of human nature without hiding them, and in fact, many of his stories have dark themes or are gruesome, but they do not leave a bad aftertaste or make you feel depressed. I fell in love with it.

He wishes to keep the upbeat mood around even during dark times of the series.

The origin of Revice name:

>We thought about the words "00i" and "00bai" for a long time, and then we came up with "rebuy". In Hebrew, it means "to bind together," and there is also a demon called Leviathan, so we combined Levi and Vice and came up with "Revise (= correcting evil)"!

Stamp ideas came from his kids' toys

The chatbox transformation sequence was suggested by special effects director, Mr. Hiroshi Futsuda. Because of stamps.

T-Rex was chosen because they want the genetic of a creature with strength and personality. Also helps they haven't had a purely T-Rex Rider before.

Kinoshita was the one who suggested for Aguilera as the leader.
