You start with the design, then work on the seo. How I go about building my sites.

SEO is the points that you start from before,while and after designing your web
still with you as long as your website alive
if you ignore it before or while or after building, your website will just a name

You can not start something before while and after designing a site. You need the design in place, then you can tweak the design.

You have an idea for a site, you start mentally designing the site, and then do your best on the seo side after the site is done. That is my way of doing a new site.

This is the same as the content or traffic is king argument. SEO and design go hand in hand one without the other is worthless.

You always have to think seo from the get go. If you don't, you'll be doing work arounds, retro fitting, edits to make it work. Think seo when choosing a theme, plugins, content, linkage, purpose, etc. If you fail to plan your plan will fail

DESIGN is always last, if you mean graphic design or layout related.
Been doing this since 1995.
Functionality is first.
Then the content for the functionality.
Once you have functionality to meet your goals, You know for ecommerce, your goal is to get the credit card number/payment.
Then the content for the SEO, then the SEO.
The content is used to drive the interest and get the payment, that you can not have without the functionality. The content for the functionality, help guide through the functionality. You know instructions for paying.
The SEO for content is to give the SEs reason to list your site in the SERPs.

The content and the SEO are becoming more like one now, but you have to create good content FIRST, before you can have good content with good SEO.

Part of the functionality is also SEO. When you are talking about the theme design (WordPress). Meta tags, proper title and header use, etc.

Back in the DAY SEO planning came before buying the domain.

With Google recent changes the domain name has become even more important than it was a few months ago. MUCH MORE Important!

FYI, it has been proven that the egg came first.

It makes sense, otherwise how would a chick come about.
