Have you considered reciprocal roofs? No center pole, clear space.

Greetings, We are seriously thinking about building a 16 sided house, one story only. We do not want a fireplace in the middle, as roof leaks are a major headache in the Gulf Coast region. I am wondering what to use for a center pole. The interior measurements are a 40' diameter, with 18" walls and a 5' porch wrapping the building. We plan on using the center as our entertainment center, with a rocket stove on an exterior wall. Every home built like this that I can find is a two story, and built for the cold north, not my hot, humid Texas.
