Who/what projects do you think straddle the line between interior and exterior the best? Who blurs the boundary between inside and outside, between the house and the garden?
Miller House - Eero Saarinen/Dan Kiley with interiors by Alexander Girard. By far the best blending of interior and exterior while keeping both clearly defined.
The thin line between landscape and architecture

see any SITE (james wines) projects. SITE stands for Sculpture In The Environment I think.
The Japanese own this category. Go Hasegawa, Ryue Nishizawa, and Toyo Ito do amazing things.
With some attempt to respect a timeline-
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan
Johnson's Glass house
Mies van der Rohe's Farnsworth House
Pierre Koenig's Stahl House ( and many more Case Study Houses)
John Lautner Sheats-Goldstein Residence (and more Lautner)
Emilio Ambasz' ACROS Fukuoka Prefectural International Hal
MRVDV's Expo 2000 Pavilion
OMA's Prada Los Angeles
Li Xiaodong's Liyuan library
Repeats-
The Miller house
Go Hasegawa
(Kazuyo Sejima and) Ryue Nishizawa
I Agree that the Japanese and the California mid-century modernists own this category...
