The Renderosity Gallery of the Week for February 22, 2016, is the Strata3D Gallery.

Strata3D began in 1988 as an idea shared between two brothers while attending BYU in Utah. Their goals were to offer "software must offer the most sophisticated visual effects, and yet be easy to use so that non-technical people could perform three-dimensional modeling, scene layout, animation and realistic rendering".

That was 28 years ago and the two brothers, Gary and Ken Bringhurst, have grown the Strata idea/brand into a variety of applications. Strata3D has become Design3D. But regardless of the name, the application is very popular and easy to use (and affordable). Renderosity artists have created some wonderful models and scenes with this application.
