What would a graphic design work incorporating type and images be called? - Site Owners Forums

I am doing a workshop on graphic design and I am having a little trouble on terminology. I have seen type+image works called "print," but are they only referred to as "print" if they are intended to be printed out?

Good question - and sorry i don't know the correct answer but, why not 'improvise' and say "design" or "piece" or something along those lines...

"To improvise" means to do without pre-vision; no form or preview is provided in advance. For example, one asks: "How shall we proceed?" The answer might be "We don't know; we will have to improvise." Improvisation seems to be a second choice. The word makes it seem better to know, to have a plan. The word is formed as a negation, no already envisioned form. "Improvise" is one of many words that are defined negatively on the assumption that reality is or should be fixed in form. What's not fixed form is said to be ambiguous, undifferentiated, indistinct, contradictory, nothing.this is really very good site.thanks for sharing this.
