I used rough cedar beams on mine. Stained, no need for treated lumber. No visible fasteners. Installed bead board plywood as the first of the roofing plies, to simulate bead board from underneath. That was painted a light color.

If you use dimensional or engineered lumber, it can be wrapped and made to look like one-piece beams. Not hard, just takes care and time.
