You can do it through layout nesting. It's basically just like doing your html pages. For example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:orientation="vertical"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <LinearLayout
            android:orientation="vertical"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="226dp"
            android:background="@color/dark_shadow">
    </LinearLayout>

    <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent">

        <LinearLayout
                android:orientation="vertical"
                android:layout_width="180dp"
                android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                android:background="@color/holo_bright_blue">
        </LinearLayout>

        <LinearLayout
                android:orientation="vertical"
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                >

            <LinearLayout
                    android:orientation="vertical"
                    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_height="154dp"
                    android:background="@color/me_blue">
            </LinearLayout>

            <LinearLayout
                    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_height="fill_parent">

                <LinearLayout
                        android:orientation="vertical"
                        android:layout_width="106dp"
                        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                        android:background="@color/dark_shadow">
                </LinearLayout>

                <LinearLayout
                        android:orientation="vertical"
                        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                        android:background="@color/light_gray">
                </LinearLayout>
            </LinearLayout>
        </LinearLayout>

    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Also make use of the layout weight and weight sum of the parent container is you need to add other views inside those layouts. Hope this will give you some hints on what you're trying to achieve.
