Yup, deisgn comes first...
We have a "standard" set of technologies, and we build the site including
these around the design - so if the design demands Frames, then we use
them - if it demands DHTML, then we use that...
Also, the designer may come up with something that us "tech heads" would
never have thought of... so it pushes us to create new toys...
If you want to see one of our sites that was pushed from design into the
layout...

The frame layout is hellishly complex, but it works fantastically (when it
works <g>)
Or another one that was built from design
www.mgscoachworks.com
The tech was built for this one specifically for the "split page" design...
Comes of having a designer who doesn't think of "What can I do on the web"
but "What can I design which will look fantastic, and let the programmers
think about how to do it" <g>
