What is this type of page design called? Its the sort of thing that's used in magazines.
Usually has a pull quote or image where the A's are and is surrounded by text (1 2)

This is known as a fireplace layout, where AAAA can be text, an image or, more frequently, an advert. The first version represents a single page. The second shows a two page spread. On its own the two pages together would be better known as a DPS - double page spread.
