I am looking for a suggestion how to create a layout which looks like the image above. I can't figure out how the area in white is done.
Any pointers will be appreciated.

Set left Layout's L.Height to match_parent, Right Layout's L.Height to wrap_content set min-height to right.layout.
If RelativeLayout is used in Left layout, use align_parentTop center_horizontal align_parentBottom respectively.
