I'm trying to find the term for a rectangle or figure made of rectangles of solid color, as found sometimes near the title on the front page of publications and websites. I have looked at various glossaries of page layout terminology and so far have not found the term for this.

Example 1: the black rectangle above the title (“The Word”) in the following image.



Example 2: the neon cherry L-shaped thing around the title.

There is no specific general term for these.

InDesign has a formatting feature for this called Paragraph Rules, which can sit over, direcly under or below the headline and can have any weight from a thin line to a solid bar.

The L shape could be called a frame.
