I like this quote from Fred Brooks : 

`Show me your code and conceal your data structures, and I shall continue to be 
mystified. Show me your data structures, and I won't usually need your code; 
it'll be obvious.'

It seems to be confirmed by some rather qualified people :

I write management applications for businesses, and give _a lot_ of care to the 
database structure. I find that the number of lines of code that need to be 
written is strictly inversely correlated to the appropriateness of the database 
design (meaning that the better the database structure, the lesser code is 
needed).

Knowing about the many fine functions Postgresql offers also helps, of course.
