The [Bose](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quietcomfort-ultra-earbuds-2nd-gen) Noise-Canceling ad campaign is a series of clever ads that shows you how well Bose headphones drown out sound. The ads are so good that they are a winning campaign of the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival. The advertising agency behind the magic, DDB Singapore, put together three noisy versions of the ad: 'Construction,' 'Noisy Dog,' and 'Crying Kid.'

I feel more at peace just looking at the ads.
