This is a partial list of works in MoMA's Department of Architecture and Design, organized by type.

MoMA's Department of Architecture and Design was founded in 1932[27] as the first museum department in the world dedicated to the intersection of architecture and design.[28] The department's first director was Philip Johnson who served as curator between 1932–34 and 1946–54.[29]

The collection consists of 28,000 works including architectural models, drawings and photographs.[27] One of the highlights of the collection is the Mies van der Rohe Archive.[28] It also includes works from such legendary architects and designers as Frank Lloyd Wright[30][31][32][33] Paul László, the Eameses, Isamu Noguchi, and George Nelson. The design collection contains many industrial and manufactured pieces, ranging from a self-aligning ball bearing to an entire Bell 47D1 helicopter. In 2012, the department acquired a selection of 14 video games, the basis of an intended collection of 40 which is to range from Spacewar! (1962) to Minecraft (2011).[34]
