The End of Boxes

Conjecture: Kiesler's Endless House project may well have inspired the 'blob' elements within Le Corbusier's Electronic Calculation Center Olivetti at Rho-Milan for there are more endless-house-like elements within the Olivetti Center design.
...your last statements (to jafidler) rings true. Diversity is much more a reality than most (critics) like to admit. I'd even go so far as to say diversity is a viable design methodology.

The End of Boxes
The second Goetheanum is certainly sculptural, but I wouldn't call it blob-like.
Though it's hard to discern from the model and plans of the 'cafeteria' facilities of the Olivetti center, there is a definite free-flow circulation between levels which is a strong 'blob' characteristic.
