contents Generative machine learning models have revolutionized material discovery by capturing complex structure-property relationships, yet extending these approaches to the inverse design of three-dimensional metamaterials remains limited by computational complexity and underexplored design spaces due to the lack of expressive representations. Here we present DiffuMeta, a generative framework integrating diffusion transformers with an algebraic language representation, encoding three-dimensional geometries as mathematical sentences. This compact, unified parameterization spans diverse topologies, enabling the direct application of transformers to structural design. DiffuMeta leverages diffusion models to generate new shell structures with precisely targeted stress-strain responses under large deformations, accounting for buckling and contact while addressing the inherent one-to-many mapping by producing diverse solutions. Uniquely, our approach enables simultaneous control over multiple mechanical objectives, including linear and nonlinear responses beyond training domains. Experimental validation of fabricated structures further confirms the efficacy of our approach for accelerated design of metamaterials and structures with tailored properties.
