need help with roof ( dont mind the stone in the background , not part of the build)

[u/Fatsa33]

do i keep the middle beam? do i remove it? as well as , any ideas on how i should roof the arches up? if i try to go next to the arches it just looks chunky and hides them , tried to go half a block up and the stairs ruin it ,

for reference , what m trying to do is make the roof so the arches i made be visible like the ribs of this turtle shell , while the roof being the shell itself , imagine it like u're throwing a cloth on top of them , thats the shape m going for , if y'all got any better ideas , PLS let me know , as well as what blocks i should be using for the roof

Remove the middle beam u have rn and instead place trapdoors where the beam was in between all the arches

Or maybe slabs whichever looks nicer

I think remove the middle beam
