This dissertation addresses, in its first part, the practice-based research problems in the academic research s architectural area. The purpose is to verify in what proportion research methods, that evolve non-textual analysis process, show up and to interpret them as academic elements of argumentation. The intention is to contribute to the reflection on academic knowledge production and its communication in practice-based areas X required patterns in the academic context. To set a boundary to this research, were analyzed Brazilian academic work (theses and dissertations) attended by about design methods and / or visual approach of the architectural work of Frank Lloyd Wright. Through these studies, a gap was identified: the lack of a deeper iconographic analysis about the influence of the Japanese art and architecture in the North American architect work. The second part of this dissertation, therefore, presents and emphasizes the role of images when the Japanese culture resonance on Frank Lloyd Wright's work is approached. The purpose of this effort has two-fold: the first one is to illustrate and to emphasize the importance of the visual or non-textual material employment, in the academic argumentation construction in the architectural area, which purposes are, for example, to detect or discuss projectual influences. The second intention is the contribution to supply the gap mentioned before, which is, the little attention given by Brazilian academic works about Japanese art s influence on Wright s work. The analysis of the academic works has helped to a better comprehension of which elements and resources, and how they must be employed in an academic research that has the practice-based characteristics. The construction of the exercise in the second part of this work uses the association of text and image, pointing, this way, to evidences that, if the use of non-textual resources, sometimes may be essential to the substantiation of an argumentation, on the other hand, this same argumentation cannot does without the text to be clearly enounced.
