Well I am a carpenter and I give u tge thumbs up! Only thing I'd do diff is add a slight slope away from the building on the exterior shelf so when it rains it doesn't hold water or cause it to run inside. I will also caution you with the cypress, everyone thinks new grow back cypress has the same weather resistant qualities as old growth cypress or sinker cypress , but it does not it will act tge same as if you left a regular 2x4 out in the weather. So possibly make adjustments on any moving parts that can swell ... Allow for expansion and contraction. As far a "being in tge weather" you might just make the overhangs on tge roof a little bigger to help protect it. I like the shiplapping , do u have a router table?
