About the Book
Every great piece of software starts not with code, but with clarity. Exploratory Domain Discovery(EDD) was born out of frustration—with meetings that yielded no shared understanding, with solutions built around misunderstood problems, and with tools that either focused too much on implementation or too little on strategy.
I created EDD to bridge a gap. EventStorming and Domain Storytelling are powerful, but I needed a tool that could help teams not only understand a domain, but identify its strategic heart—the Main Point. EDD gives teams a map that begins at the destination and works its way backward, uncovering core concepts, value cycles, and design opportunities.
This book is for software architects, product managers, developers, designers, and anyone working in complex domains. It is a guide to seeing clearly, designing wisely, and collaborating deeply.
About the Author
I’m Masoud Barhami. a software architect, developer, and writer with over a decade of experience designing meaningful, maintainable software systems. My career began in hands-on coding, but quickly grew into a deeper exploration of architecture, modeling, and the language of software itself.
My central focus has always been clarity: how to understand real-world domains, how to design with intent, and how to build systems that reflect purpose, not just requirements. I’ve found that truly great software isn’t just well-written, it’s well-discovered: shaped around the right problems, approached with the right mindset, and realized through careful design. This philosophy has guided much of my work, and continues to evolve through experimentation, reflection, and practice.
Today, I work as a software architect and independent consultant, collaborating with teams to navigate complex domains and align systems with real-world goals. I also train and mentor developers and architects who want to level up in their thinking and design fluency.
