Yes, an octogon 10 studs on a side, that's right. The tricky part is that
if you try to do it smaller or bigger, it just won't work when you'll try
assembling the roof stories on the octogon base. Believe me, I tried lots
of sizes! But I really like it this way.

An interesting design. It looks a bit like one of my next project, which
will be inspired by the Japanese pavillon (I think) at Expo 67 in Montreal.
