The Guild collection by Burlington is inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement of the late 19^th century. Bringing the power back to the decorative arts, the Arts and Crafts movement placed importance on beautiful, well-made objects that could be used in everyday life. Rejecting excessive ornamentation and lack of material consideration, it placed an emphasis on high-quality pieces that were built to last.

Practitioners of this design style believed in the importance of designing objects for a complete interior that blend to form a harmonious whole. The Guild collection adopts this philosophy with its comprehensive collection of bathroom products.
