You can create that view using a ListView like its explained there: https://developer.android.com/training/material/lists-cards.html.

You can create the floating button using an oval shape with an image inside and set some elevation. Click here for more info How to create a floating action button (FAB) in android, using AppCompat v21?

Have a look at general Android Material Design Guidelines to get some additional insight for these kind of ui. https://developer.android.com/design/material/index.html
