Technology is provided for a housing assembly with a membrane-covered frame for use with head mounted displays. The head mounted display includes a housing assembly having a frame. The frame includes a first loop structure, a second loop structure offset along a central axis from the first loop structure, and a plurality of beams extending between the first loop structure and the second loop structure. A flexible membrane extends around the frame to enclose the housing assembly and the components therein. One or more display devices are positioned within the housing assembly, and a strap assembly connects to the housing assembly for supporting the head mounted display on a user's head.
