Reason why I want to line the inside of the roof

Will be expensive and tedious. May be a better solution.
I've converted the carport into a new room and moved the car parking further back under a shade sail arrangement.
The carport roof rafters are exposed. I want to keep the sloping roof inside the carport. Easiest solution to finish off would seem to be using Glosswood Paulownia boards secret nailed to the rafters on the inside of the roof. This would create an aesthetically appealing look. For the brick walls of the carport I'll either plaster or gyprock.
My concern with the Paulownia is really that I don't want the lined roof to be a magnet for termites. I guess I'm surprised that Paulownia has termite resistant properties given that it is a hardwood which is soft (easy to dent).
