Clean code is the first step to creating flexible, maintainable software, but without strong object oriented design, you can still create a mess.  The S.O.L.I.D. design principles (acronym coined by Robert "Uncle Bob" Martin) provide a core framework to follow as you write your code, to ensure that you are following best OO design practices, and that your code is readable and maintainable.  When the pressure is on to deliver, design principles are often the first thing thrown out the window.  But learning these principles, and some simple rules and techniques to follow can help you deliver quality software even when the pressure is on.
