Navigate to a new screen:

Navigator.of(context).push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => NewScreen()));

where context is the BuildContext of a widget and NewScreen is the name of the second widget layout.

Code

main.dart

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: ThemeData(primarySwatch: Colors.blue),
      home: HomeScreen(),
    );
  }
}

class HomeScreen extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: Text('Home Screen')),
      body: Center(
        child: RaisedButton(
          child: Text(
            'Navigate to a new screen >>',
            style: TextStyle(fontSize: 24.0),
          ),
          onPressed: () {
            _navigateToNextScreen(context);
          },
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

  void _navigateToNextScreen(BuildContext context) {
    Navigator.of(context).push(MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => NewScreen()));
  }
}

class NewScreen extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: Text('New Screen')),
      body: Center(
        child: Text(
          'This is a new screen',
          style: TextStyle(fontSize: 24.0),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}
