Client Development


With my assigned client 'the lightning man' I am asked to create a short 500 word description/story about my client as well as three images to further define my character.





From the safe confines of his abode he gazed upon the fast approaching tropical storm laid before him. With a quick flash of lightning the man’s reflection in the window was overwhelmed by the vast illuminated sky. There was a brief moment of silence to which followed a tremendous thunder. As the lightning struck the rain droplets began to fall upon the window until soon after the torrential rain smothered his view. He could again see his weathered complexion looking back at him.

The storm was close but was never close enough for he was always mesmerized by the power of lightning. Undaunted and composed he always felt most comfortable and at peace around storms. He had lived and travelled to many places but had always favored places that were close to the equator where the most sporadic displays of weather could be found.

He loves the wide open spaces and always prefers anything natural over artificial with preference to being surrounded and emerged within nature.

With these fascinations he was always destined for his career choice to reside in meteorology. Always dedicated to his work, he lived it, always watching and recording weather patterns. It was his responsibility to warn the local community of any serious weather activities. He protected them from the dangers of incoming storms to which he felt like his own superhero.

Architectural Design Studio 4

    My name is Paul McFarland and am currently studying Architecture at UniSA
 This blog has been created for the purpose of communicating my Design Studio 4 work.

The community of student blogs can be located here:

The first project asks to create my very own fictional client. Each student has been assigned a character from a list of characters previously created by American architect John Hejduk.
