Over time Squeaker will move beyond the limits of Swinburne’s PA building it will become known as a successful and exciting initiative to other design schools and to industry professionals. Squeaker will initially expand to other levels of PA building and will eventually extend past the panel signage to other spaces and medias.

Outside of PA building squeaker will explore extensions to other campus areas, including High Street windows and PU Tower, as well as campus banners, poster panels, the library foyer and cafeteria. There is also the possibility of extending further to Swinburne’s TAFE staff and students.

Permitting the success and content produced by the Squeaker blog it also may be possible to produce a yearly publication, documenting students thought and discussions on design.

A range of medias including motion, three-dimensional and spatial, are also possible future endeavours and will rely on the passion and creativity of the student push Squeaker to new levels.

Squeaker is a minimal budget non-profit initiative, which will be supported by the university. Swinburne’s design faculty is already equipped with all the medias and materials Squeaker needs to produce a successful communication plan. The student group will use the faculty’s computers, programs and printing equipment to create their outcomes. Squeaker has strategically planned to utilise existing signage systems and two colour printing outputs to minimise costs. The main ongoing cost will be domain purchase and server expenses.

As it progresses raising funds through campus events, the sales of squeaker merchandise and promotional material is prospect that Squeaker will explore to support new projects.
