A Victorian house was usually three stories high with an octagonal or rounded tower. If you search ';Victorian house'; you will see several. While there is nothing wrong with this cone roof on a tower, I think it would not be practical for a whole house unless the house was round - but then wouldn't the cone get pretty tall?
The Dutch often made a round house. Perhaps you could combined the two.Can you find anything wrong with this house design?
You plan on shingling this roof yourself? If the pitch is too steep you will need special staging and tools to do it. If the pitch is too low and you are in a snowy climate snow can crush a roof it is over a couple of feet.
Sorry for the first answer, so I asked my brother the carpenter in the family.
Indians built them that way.

It would deflect wind better, I can't see it being a problem. Good luck building.
