Mav is right on. Just as a followup, I would summarize by saying that, if something reduces a mana cost, it only reduces it "kind for kind." If it reduces it by (2), then you can only apply that to colorless mana costs. If it reduces it by double waterdrop, you can only apply that to blue mana costs, and so forth.

Heartless Summoning only reduces a spells casting cost by 2 generic mana. It has no effect on coloured mana requirements of casting the spell. Grand Architect would still cost 2 blue mana to cast with a Heartless Summoning on the field. If an effect would change the coloured casting cost of a spell it will specifically state that it reduces a spells casting cost by a particular colour of mana such as the case with Edgewalker . As Heartless Summoning only states that it reduces by 2 generic, it does exactly that.
