I've been wanting to put up an air-gapped facing on the afternoon sun side of my house, because I can feel the walls radiating warmth inside the house when the sun's on that side. The problem is that's the street side of the house and I do have to concern myself with appearances, both for my own comfort and pride as well as for sale value later on.

Any ideas for a cost effective, attractive facing that could live an inch or two away from the actual surface of the house? I was even considering that white plastic lattice mounted on 1" stand-offs, or corrugated galvanized steel mounted vertically.. but that option would be rather expensive as I'd need to "stylize" the whole house to match it cosmetically.
