To start a project, navigate to a dataset page you're interested in working with. If you have data access to this dataset, the Add to project button will be active.
This will show you some recent projects. You can either add this dataset to one of these, view all projects, or create a new project from scratch.
You can also create a project from the "Projects" tab of your workspace (click + New and give it a name), and then add the data you're interested in working with via the Add dataset button to the left of the black menu bar.

To view and update additional information about your project, click its name (Example project, in this case) in the middle of the black menu bar.
