Make the subtitle bolder, to fix the div at the bottom of the page because it was going over the border, tighten the space around the picture, add a caption for the video, change the color red I used for the text by going in to Photoshop, making it zero padding/margins in the body at the top of the page and to fix the heart in my header because it was originally cropped off at the bottom point.
I did all of the above as shown here from my previous images of the website.

Glaser also is a renowned graphic and architectural designer with a body of work ranging from the iconic logo to complete graphic and decorative programs for the restaurants in the World Trade Center in New York.
