Bastioned Prow 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.

Old French proue, ship's-front. As a color modifier, prow implies a ship's-front-and-figurehead quality, the visual register of Royal-Navy-and-Tall-Ship-Prow hand-carved ship's-front-and-figurehead prow-and-cutwater-and-bowsprit maritime-architecture surfaces under tall-ship-prow-and-figurehead maritime-headway light. Sits at the modifier-and-nautical end of the grid, parallel to bow and hull 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.
