The building has a base of 16x24 studs.

As a dome is typically a hemisphere, this topic about building spheres might be very useful for you. There's also an automatic tool to construct spheres that you could use to get an ldraw-plan.

Like oezi said you can build a dome out of cascading bricks, which is perfect for most scales of building. For smaller scale building where you'd want a less jagged approach you may want to use a combination of 1/4 dome pieces. A complete dome will take up an area of 6x6 studs wide.
This technique is common in the Prince of Persia sets.
For a true miniland scale building you may want to have a closer look at the model in Legoland Florida.
