It depends on the kind of cladding. Some materials, like stones, need to be attached directly on the building envelope. Some curtain-wall use the total room space as air gap. And a few synthetic cladding can be placed with a more or less ample gap, calculated after the heat of the direct sun impact on the building, across the sun yearly track.
