I'm wondering about using 'des' before noun. I know that if the adjective was before the noun we must use 'de', but can anyone tell me why did we use 'des' not 'de' in this sentence :
L'organisation travaille sur des grands domaines
In fact, both are correct. Moreother de sound better in this case IMHO.

It depends on the end of the sentence : does it end after "grands domaines" (-> de) or is there a subordinate clause (-> des) – Yohann V. Oct 14 '16 at 9:19

@YohannV. I don't understand, what you mean exactly, could you elaborate and give an example ? – Jylo Oct 14 '16 at 9:54

If you have a sentence like
L'organisation travaille sur de grands domaines.you will prefer to use de because you don't add more informations. If you want to say more :L'organisation travaille sur des grands domaines, qui bien que variés ont tous le même objectif.you use des because this nominal group will be explained into the subordinate clause. – Yohann V.
