During a trip across the united states in 1940, he began to reformulate his approach to design. However, the onset of world war ii interrupted stone’s exploration. He entered the army as a captain, in 1943, but was discharged in november 1945.
Stone reopened his architectural practice in 1945 in a townhouse in new york city. During this period, he continued to explore architectural forms. His success as a practitioner of modern architecture, enabled him to form bonds with other academics of the era.
