If you have defined your relation Client<->Project to use a foreign key 
you only have to apply one wire. The Kickstarter will add a property 
"client" to your Project automatically and "fills" it with the related 
Client. The foreign key field "client" holds the uid of the client. As 
the property "client" is annotated with the class name, Extbase tries to 
translate the uid in the appropriate Client object.

In your Client there will be a property "project" holding all related 
Project objects as expected.

Be aware of circular dependencies (building a Project->building related 
Client->building Projects->building Client .....). Try to add @lazy to 
the "client" property if necessary.
