The database structure should follow the logical real world structure of the information you're going to hold in it. You firstly have to ask yourself, What data do I have? How is logically seperated? (i.e. 'Customers', 'Suppliers', 'Orders', 'Products', 'Categories') and finally How is it logically linked? ('Customers' make 'Orders' of 'Products', 'Suppliers' supply 'Products', 'Products' are members of 'Categories')
The database should be designed around that.
