#12: William Morris
William Morris looked like a man who could design your wallpaper, argue socialism, revive medieval craft, and possibly chop firewood before lunch. He was rugged, passionate, artistic, and gloriously allergic to industrial ugliness. As a leader of the Arts and Crafts movement, he made beauty feel moral, handmade, and slightly rebellious. Not every heartthrob needs a dueling pistol. Some arrive with a beard, a loom, and strong opinions about wallpaper.
