By asking "What do I need from the app?" or "What questions will the app have to answer?" or "What information does the client want?" and going from there.
Those are all just about the same question. From there you can determine needed inputs, tables, keys, etc.

I'm about to start writing a big web app (mostly in PHP). But I'm not sure if I should layout the DB first then write the app, or should I just start writing the app and add stuff to the DB as I need it. How do you guys go about it?
Thanks, Dan.
