In Norway, Blue Green Structure (BGS), urban green network with the purpose of storm water management and value added living environment is often implemented as part of river opening project in large scale urban development. This paper aims to examine how planning process contributes to special quality of BGS in two urban development projects in Oslo and Stavanger. Through analyzing the planning processes and storm management systems in relation to the spatial structure, following facts can be identified; 1) Basic structure of BGS reflects expected functions and connectivity of the municipal masterplan. 2) Storm management system with gentle and accessible terrain adds more value to the basic structure of BGS. This consistency is due to the parallel design process of storm water management engineering and outdoor area from early period. 3) Local and regional pedestrian network are integrated and has pleasant water landscape feature of storm water management at important connective points. Since it requires significant coordination of functional requirement and spatial arrangement, Landscape plan for whole planning area to the detailed level has contributed for maintaining the consistency.
