The theme has it’s own content shortcodes so you can add featured content block in any order. The shortcodes list includes services, slider, latest posts, tabs client, team, testimonial, call to action and more.
The styling side is also good enough to optimize website background with any image or color.

The theme options panel includes controls to manage header, font styles, colors, logo, navigation menu and everything. The homepage demo shows a big slideshow, latest projects, blog post carousel and company intro sections.
You will have your own way to copy same design like demo or add extra shortcodes section as needed. The genesis framework provides options to control layouts and basic operations.

So this is good place to add contacts, social profile links, Flickr photos and other items. The sidebar is also excellent widget area which is available for those pages which has sidebar enabled from layouts section.
