The following classes could not be instantiated: android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout

Question

Anybody know what this is about?

Here are my dependencies:

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:22.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:gridlayout-v7:22.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:palette-v7:22.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:22.0.0'
}

I imported everything from the Android Support Library and synced the Gradles. Anybody know why I am getting rendering problems in the layout?

Here is the error log:
