We'll kick things off with a giant everyone knows (and mostly) loves. Dropbox recently released a bunch of ads in an uncharacteristic style, which lead us to their blog series "The Mind at Work". Not only do these ads remind us of The Natural History Museum, which is always a good thing; they're also mysterious and intriguing - a far-cry from their usual corporate-looking ads.

Airbnb constantly produces eye-pleasing ads, but this one is just so damn cute, we couldn't help sharing it. Reminds us of a childhood treehouse that we never got enough time to play with.

Given that ads take up a significant chunk of our daily lives, it's almost a miracle when one of them succeeds to describe the product in mere seconds. Grammarly tends to do that in a playful and colorful manner, which is a definite plus.

Another well-designed ad for well-designed products. If you've ever ordered Moo cards, you know they're great to touch. These ads provide the same seductive feeling as that texture.
