Gradle won't create any directories for you. You have to create the following directory structure,

- res/layouts
    - layout
        - layout1.xml
    - layouts_category2
        - layout
            - layout2.xml

Like this, we can use Gradle's ability to merge multiple resource folders. Note that it's not an Android feature.
