use RelativeLayout in your xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:background="@drawable/boxbig" android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">

 <Button  android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" 
    android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Bottom and Right"
    />

</RelativeLayout>

Your layout will work in both orientations. You can specify a layout for landscape orientation by adding an xml with the same name in a folder named layout-landscape as per this document. Note that you should handle make sure your App works correct when orientation is changed as Android may recreate your view if you do not handle the orientation change.
