Question

How did Brunelleschi plan to pay for the special chapels he envisioned?

Answer 1

It was probably the De medici family, but it could have been others.

Answer 2

All artists in that day had patrons, and those people (rich) would pay for an artist to do a work (either by commission or they would let the artist do what he wanted).  Sometimes other rich people would commission a chapel for a loved one who passed away, or for a whole family in that family's name.
