I would assume the base styles are the desktop, and as break points decrease, 
you would undo the desktop layout.


My experience with a site I took over that was done this way is that desktop 
first seems to require a lot more code to over-ride the desktop layout than it 
does to build mobile-first.


My 2 cents...
