True Titan Moss

Old English trēowe, faithful — used as a color modifier since the seventeenth century for hues that read as the canonical version of their family. True red, true blue: the saturation is full, the hue is neither shifted nor adulterated. Sits at the center of the bold and crisp buckets, marking the unequivocal middle of any chromatic family.

Greek Τιτάν, primeval-Titan-or-Saturn-moon. As a color modifier, titan implies a Saturn-moon-and-methane-haze-and-primeval quality, the visual register of Saturn-moon-Titan-and-Cassini-Huygens hand-Saturn-moon-and-methane-haze-and-primeval Saturn-moon-Titan-and-Cassini-Huygens-and-Kraken-Mare titan-and-Saturn-moon-and-methane-haze surfaces under Saturn-moon-Titan-and-Cassini-Huygens-and-Kraken-Mare orange-haze-and-cryo-volcano-and-methane-lake outer-system-light. Sits at the modifier-and-cosmic end of the grid, parallel to saturn and neptune in usage.

Bryophyta — the nonvascular plants that colonized land 470 million years ago, before vascular plants and far before flowers. The color refers to a thick mat of Hypnum or sphagnum on a temperate forest floor: a soft, slightly yellow-shifted green with the velvet texture of millimeter-scale leaves. Dustier than fern, deeper than lichen, with the slow patience of a plant that lives by absorbing rain through its surface.
