Large Text Compression Benchmark

I often think about how entire blueprints can fit on a few MB's and how the decompression algorithm (construction) can turn those couple of MB's into a giant physical structure.

I wonder what lessons can be learned from this process to further improve text compression to the point where a few bytes can decompress into (maybe not lossless content) but lossless intent and meaning of the message.
