Good to see you're continuing to post to your blog, some students are falling behind the weekly blog requirements Jeremy has been setting out. What I see in this post is reasonably good, though to improve it aesthetically, more could be done to make the images fit the grid you've set out. For example, the bottom two images could be "zoomed in" a little bit, and have part of their top or bottom cut off so they match the width of the floor plan images above them. And the text could be justified rather than left-aligned.
Good choice of font, it somewhat suits the architectural style of the building.
Also be mindful of colours in the images you have - the only one with colour in this case is the top-left photograph. A large part of making a design look good is consistency - doing something for one image means doing it for all images, or doing it for all images that are similar to it (eg, like how you've aligned the plan drawings to fit their own grid, but the top two images don't fit the exact same 2x4 grid because they're not plan drawings). For the colours, I'd suggest either finding more colour photographs of the building, or perhaps making the colour photograph black and white, and then picking a strong colour used a lot in the building and using Photoshop to tint the photographs that colour.
I hope all other progress is going well with your assignment 2.
