The Pavillon de l'Arsenal puts on display its collections of architecture models; prototypes by Jean Prouvé, drawings by Émile Aillaud, studies by Jean Nouvel, models by Frank O. Gehry, sketches by Manuelle Gautrand to name a few of the 58 original works displayed and showing structures constructed in Paris between 1948 and 2009.

All the original works come from the architecture collection at Centre Pompidou along with photos and videos showing interviews with the architects.
