Switching between different objects I'm sorry if it's something basic, but I really don't know which keywords to look for, so I have to ask.

Say I'm making an interior scene. I have three different types of chairs, three different types of tables, and two different types of plants. I would like to see different combinations thereof, before deciding which pieces of the furniture I would like to keep.

Is there an efficient way to switch between these objects, without having to manually toggle their visibility on and off?

Edit: thanks to Ben, I've defined an idea of what I would like. Is it possible to set up a dummy object like a cube that would contain, for example, all the chairs I want to test, and somehow cycle through them?
If you are still on Blender 2.79, you can use the Layer System for this. Simply assign the objects you want to view together to the same layer by selecting them in Object Mode, pressing M and then clicking the layer you want them to appear on. 



Objects can appear in several layers, so if you wanted the same chair to be visible in multiple combinations, that can be done by adding it to multiple layers. You do this while holding Shift while assigning the layer.
