Bastioned Crown 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 corōna, garland / crown. As a color modifier, crown implies a royal-headpiece-and-coronation quality, the visual register of British-Imperial-State-Crown-and-French-Crown-Jewel hand-set jeweled-and-velvet-and-gilt royal-and-Imperial-coronation surfaces under Imperial-State-Crown-and-French-Crown-Jewel royal-and-Imperial coronation-day light. Sits at the modifier-and-cultural end of the grid, parallel to throne and coronet 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.
