You will want to put down a good layer of dirt. Get a top quality mix that includes some sort of humus or peat, anything to help promote good growth and water retention. Then buy sod, the best way to go, you can lay it yourself. Water very well, fert. after a while to promote growth. Do it right the first time and you will have a great lawn. Try not to make a huge area of lawn though, do beds with lots of mulch (shredded bark is good), again with good dirt and plant some beautiful things.
Check out Sunset's garden book, it is the "bible" for gardeners. Tells how to take care of plants, lawns, etc. Then look at some good books on planning a garden/yard, also by Sunset. You can get some great ideas and planning is the key. Have fun!
