Fairly difficult to do with Lego, at least on a large scale.  You might want to
check out Ed Boxer's Crown Cathedral:

It's not quite what you're looking for, but I suspect it's about the closest
you'll get from "system" lego.

Depends on how hard you work at it.  The finalist in <insert name of
building contest> made a *huge* carousel, with the canopy made of red
roof bricks.  Very cool.  There's a picture in the 1999 retail catalog
that I got from CA last week.

It's not a dome, but it should give good ideas.
