A shelf is a furniture item that holds up to six stacks of items, similar to and more space efficient than a stockpile.
Acquisition
Constructing a shelf requires the Complex Furniture research to be complete, 20 Stuff (Metallic/Woody/Stony), 500 ticks (8.33 secs) of work.
Summary
A shelf acts like a stockpile zone that can hold 3 items a tile, or 6 items per shelf. It also protects items from deterioration and removes their beauty penalty. They cannot hold chunks, minified buildings, plants, or large corpses. They slow passage, but do not block movement. This trait makes it possible for pawns to pick up/place items without actually stepping on its tile. Shelves can be reinstalled as needed.
Their storage default setting is to contain general items at the "Preferred" priority level, but this can be changed at will, even while the shelf is still in an unfinished blueprint form. Shelves can also be "linked" together in groups to share storage settings, without the need to manually select the entire group each time. You can edit the storage/link settings for unfinished shelves.
The shelf's beauty depends on both the material it is built from as well as its quality. Similar to grand sculptures or beds, its beauty will be added to the underlying tile.
Analysis
A shelf's main use is to store items. Each shelf gives thrice the storage space. They can store and "mask" many ugly items in your workstation, allow more meat into your freezer, protect weapons and mortar shells from deterioration, etc. The removal of beauty penalty and their slight beauty boost make shelves convienent anywhere you want quick access to items, like medicine in a hospital.
Shelves can also make workers more efficient. Unlike actual storage zones, shelves allow a pawn to place or remove an item without walking on top of them. Working pawns can pick items off an adjacent shelf without needing to leave their seat, which significantly improves crafting time. This technique is best combined with "drop on floor when finished" and having other pawns restock the shelves. Even outside of workstations, not having to stand on top of the tile saves a very small amount of hauling time.

Styles
 | This article relates to content added by Ideology (DLC). Please note that it will not be present without the DLC enabled. |
Ideoligions allow the selection of styles which then change the texture of the certain items and buildings when constructed by the colony. These style variants can be crafted if the colony has the selected style, or can be looted from raiders from factions with the requisite style.

Version history
- Alpha 16, it was known as the Equipment rack and could only store apparel, mortar shells, or weapons.
- 0.17.1546 - renamed from Equipment rack to Shelf, can now store anything instead of only apparel, mortar shells, and weapons
- 1.1.0 - Shelves were given a path cost. This made them slower to move on top of, but also enabled the behavior of placing items on them without walking on top of them. Prior to this, players would use the "stool trick" for crafting stations, where several stools were placed around a crafting station that had high-priority stockpiles on top of them. Stools had a path cost (but allowed stockpile zones), achieving a similar effect. Description now states that they hide beauty of things inside of them.
- 1.4.3523 - Shelves can now hold 3 items stacks per tile, or 6 items total, making them much more efficient for space. Removed ability to store chunks, corpses, minified buildings, and other large items. Resource amount lowered from 30 to 20, work to make lowered from 600 to 500.
