Bastioned Saint Forest

Italian bastionato, fortified-with-bastions — past-participle of bastion, derived from bastia (fortified-tower). As a color modifier, bastioned implies a saturated-and-fortified-and-projecting quality, the deep-rich color of Vauban-period military-fortress star-fort projecting-bastion stone-architecture. Sits at the bold-and-fortified end of the grid, parallel to fortified and buttressed.

Latin sanctus, holy. As a color modifier, saint implies a hagiographic-and-relic quality, the visual register of Greek-Orthodox-and-Roman-Catholic-Saint hand-painted icon-and-relic-and-halo-and-iconostasis hagiographic surfaces under Greek-Orthodox-and-Roman-Catholic hand-painted icon-and-iconostasis hagiographic-tradition candlelight. Sits at the modifier-and-cultural end of the grid, parallel to monk and friar in usage.

The dense canopy of a temperate or tropical woodland — oak, beech, pine, eucalyptus, mahogany — wherever leaves close above to filter the light below. Forest green refers to the average reflectance of a healthy mid-summer canopy seen from below: a saturated, slightly muted green with the matte finish of layered chlorophyll. Deeper than fern, cooler than olive, with the ecological weight of a word that has named every wooded biome on Earth.
