BKC of Westfield
A History of Innovation and Artistry
In 1996, Mila Grecco Dietze founded BKC of Westfield to fulfill her ambition of enhancing homes and commercial offices with beautifully designed and exceptionally functional rooms that contain affordable, high-quality built-in cabinetry. Mila was quickly recognized by local homeowners for her insightful designs and unfaltering commitment to quality. BKC became the benchmark in the Westfield, NJ area for high-quality kitchens, bathrooms, and customizable cabinetry.
Following Mila’s passing in 1998, BKC has continued to expand under the thoughtful guidance of her husband Bill Dietze, the meticulous workmanship of her brother-in-law, Rob Dietze, and the artful visions of a highly talented team of professional designers and cabinetry installers. At BKC, we’re continually mindful of Mila’s original goals, and we strive to honor her legacy of innovation and artistry with every project.
