The aim of this study is to investigate the motivation and the job satisfaction of architects working at an architectural design office in Turkey. The theoretical framework of this research focuses on a hypothesis which claims that the motivation of an employee affects their job satisfaction, and therefore it has an impact on the employee performance. Since performance of design teams affects the project success, and project success is crucial to achieve an organizational success, it is crucial to investigate the motivation factors and its impact on job satisfaction. A questionnaire was conducted regarding the framework of this research. The data was collected, and regression models were constructed to analyze the findings.
