Ful Kyoto is characterized as a 'sound forest,' offering a blend of music, food, and drinks within a carefully designed environment.
The dining bar features "a modern interior that combines natural materials with industrial elements, including concrete structures and vintage furniture" from notable designers.
The venue is spacious, with 78 seats thoughtfully arranged across three distinct sections: a comfortable sofa lounge, a stylish counter bar, and a dedicated dining area. This layout offers a notably generous space, especially in a bustling city like Kyoto that boasts smaller spaces. Unique to the dining bar is its interior design that evokes the feel of a greenhouse, filled with a diverse selection of succulents and tropical plants. Central to this design are three large teak trees, which serve as striking focal points within the space. Achieving this indoor 'jungle' ambiance involved collaboration with florists and plant specialists to ensure a lush and immersive atmosphere.
