Here is one approach using split.screen() :

split.screen(fig = rbind(c(0, 0.25, 0.25, 0.75),
                          c(0.25, 0.625, 0, 1), c(0.625, 1, 0, 1)))

screen(1)
barplot(runif(5), main="Smaller")

screen(2)
barplot(runif(8), main="Bigger")

screen(3)
barplot(runif(8), main="Bigger")

close.screen(all=T)
