I also thought about this topic and I cannot find anything true and universal in how I organize the code. It just comes from experience of working in different projects and noticing when code feels comfortable and uncomfortable.  
I’ve also noticed that people I pair with have different sense of comfort when they work with a codebase. And even when we agree that it is uncomfortable we often do not agree on how to make it better.  
I am curious how to learn/teach design. I’ve picked up some maxims from other people but I do not necessarily understand why they work and in what context they don’t work untill I try. Is there a better way to know than just trying?
