title: Software design/architecture problems
body: <p>I code for a while now and learned several programming languages. I programmed a lot of little tools and such. I think I master the act of coding itself pretty good so I have e.g. no problems with syntax, I got a pretty good understanding of what is going on under the hood (reasonable assembler knowledge) and so on.</p>
  
  <p>My big problem though is: I just can't design bigger/more complex applications. I learned the principles of OOP, design patterns, learned some basic lisp programming and all stuff I could find and thought it would help me with my issue.</p>
  
  <p>But no matter what I try, how long I try: I just can't get it right. My designs always seem wrong to me somehow. Cause of that I never drawn through a bigger project, i'm kinda never satisfied with the structure of my program.</p>
  
  <p>Have you had a similiar problem? How did you manage to solve it? Got you any hints for me on how to go on?</p>
