An open architecture HVAC module (200) is disclosed having a housing (202) defining an air inlet and at least two adjacent air outlets (230, 232). An evaporator (204) and a heater unit (206) are disposed within the housing (202). A cold air chamber (226) is defined between the evaporator (204) and heater unit (206), and a hot air chamber (228) is defined downstream of the heater unit (206). A partition (208) extends into the cold and hot air chambers (226, 228) from an interior surface of the housing (202) between the two adjacent air outlets (230, 232). The partition (208) is spaced from the evaporator (204) and heater unit (206). The partition (208) cooperates with the housing (202) to define a first mixing chamber (212) in fluid communication with the first outlet (230) and a second mixing chamber (214) in fluid communication with the second outlet (232). A blend valve (224) is disposed in each mixing chambers (212, 214). The blend valves (224) are configured to selectively direct air flow from the cold and hot air chambers (226, 228) to the air outlets (230, 232).
