The image you uploaded appears to be a screenshot of a webpage. Could you clarify what you want me to do with it? For example, do you need feedback on the design, help implementing something from the image, or assistance with resolving an issue?

To display the description over the image with a blue background, you can modify the CSS slightly. Specifically, you need to make the `.term-description` element overlay the image. Here's an updated version of your CSS to achieve this:

### Updated CSS:

.project-taxonomy-grid {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
    gap: 20px;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid {
    flex: 1 1 30%;
    position: relative; /* Allows child elements to be positioned relative to this container */
    overflow: hidden; /* Ensures content doesn't spill out */
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid img {
    width: 100%;
    height: 229px; /* Ensures all images have the same height */
    object-fit: cover; /* Ensures images are scaled to fit without distortion */
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid .term-description {
    position: absolute; /* Position it on top of the image */
    bottom: 0; /* Align it to the bottom of the image */
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    background-color: #225BC0; /* Blue background */
    color: #fff; /* White text color */
    padding: 10px 16px;
    font-family: 'Archia-medium', sans-serif;
    font-size: 20px;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: 500;
    line-height: normal;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: row;
    justify-content: space-between;
    align-items: center;
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid .term-description .taxonomy-icon {
    padding: 12.6px;
    background-color: #fff; /* White background for the icon */
    border-radius: 50%; /* Makes the icon background circular */
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid .term-description .taxonomy-icon img {
    width: 16.8px;
    height: 16.8px;
}

### Explanation:
1. **`position: relative;` on `.project-grid`:** This ensures that the `.term-description` is positioned relative to the grid container.
2. **`position: absolute;` on `.term-description`:** Makes the description overlay the image.
3. **`bottom: 0;` on `.term-description`:** Aligns the description at the bottom of the grid.
4. **`overflow: hidden;` on `.project-grid`:** Ensures that the image or any other content doesn't overflow the container.

### HTML Structure:

<div class="project-grid">
    <div class="term-description">
        <div><?php echo $term->name ?></div>
        <div class="taxonomy-icon">
            <img src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri() ?>/icons/Shape.svg" alt="Icon" />
        </div>
    </div>
    <img src="<?php echo $image ?>" alt="Project Image" />
</div>

### Result:
– The **description block** will appear as a blue bar overlaying the bottom of the image.
– The icon will be positioned inside the blue background to the right of the description text.
– The image will scale to fit its container while maintaining its aspect ratio.

no add descriprion div below image and then show up above the image

To place the description “ below the image in the HTML structure but visually position it **above** the image using CSS, you can achieve this with `position: absolute` and `z-index`. Here’s how you can implement this:

### Updated CSS:

.project-taxonomy-grid {
    display: flex;
    justify-content: space-between;
    gap: 20px;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid {
    flex: 1 1 30%;
    position: relative; /* Enable positioning of child elements */
    overflow: hidden; /* Ensure content stays within the grid area */
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid img {
    width: 100%;
    height: 229px; /* Consistent image height */
    object-fit: cover; /* Prevent image distortion */
    display: block;
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid .term-description {
    position: absolute; /* Position above the image */
    bottom: 0; /* Align to the bottom of the image */
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    background-color: #225BC0; /* Blue background */
    color: #fff; /* White text */
    padding: 10px 16px;
    font-family: 'Archia-medium', sans-serif;
    font-size: 20px;
    font-weight: 500;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: row;
    justify-content: space-between;
    align-items: center;
    z-index: 2; /* Ensure it appears above the image */
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid .term-description .taxonomy-icon {
    padding: 12.6px;
    background-color: #fff; /* White icon background */
    border-radius: 50%; /* Circular background */
}

.project-taxonomy-grid .project-grid .term-description .taxonomy-icon img {
    width: 16.8px;
    height: 16.8px;
}

### Updated HTML:

<div class="project-grid">
    <img src="<?php echo $image ?>" alt="Project Image" />
    <div class="term-description">
        <div><?php echo $term->name ?></div>
        <div class="taxonomy-icon">
            <img src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri() ?>/icons/Shape.svg" alt="Icon" />
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

### Explanation:
1. **HTML Structure:**
– The “ comes first, followed by the `.term-description` in the DOM. This keeps the description below the image logically, but visually we bring it above the image.

2. **CSS Implementation:**
– **`position: absolute;` on `.term-description`:** Places the description on top of the image.
– **`z-index: 2;` on `.term-description`:** Ensures the description is above the image in stacking order.
– **`bottom: 0;` on `.term-description`:** Aligns the description to the bottom of the image.

3. **Visual vs Logical Order:**
– While the description comes after the image in the HTML, it is visually displayed over the image using the absolute positioning.

—

### Result:
– The description block will visually appear over the bottom part of the image.
– The image remains accessible and unaffected in the DOM hierarchy.
– This ensures better accessibility and maintainability.
