French term or phrase: constantes graphiques
Heading in a graphics style guide. This is what falls under the heading:

LE LOGOTYPE
LES COULEURS
LES SIGNES ET SYMBOLES
LA TYPOGRAPHIE
LE STYLE ICONOGRAPHIQUE

I have some ideas but would appreciate input. Thanks!

English translation:constant graphic elements
Explanation:
Presumably the placement of the logo, colours used, etc.

Other display areas of the web browser window may include constant graphic elements or elements that that do not change significantly over time. Such areas may include the taskbar or tool bar areas that display control buttons that access and invoke various commands. Such areas are also underutilized by present systems in that they are often restricted to the display of constant static images that may be largely ignored by a user during use of the web page.

Thanks for the suggestion! After toying with "look and feel," I ended up going with "consistent design elements," partly inspired by your answer.
