IMO, Eiffel treats contracts wrong. Ada has both dynamically constrained
[sub]types and contracts proper (with Ada's SPARK). However, the latter
might be too challenging for designing a GUI application.
P.S. Regarding FLOSS and GtkAda I maintain a widget library, it is free:

P.P.S. There are also people maintaining Ada binding to Qt and doing
impressive things with. So GTK is by far not the only option for Ada.
There are numerous Windows-specific GUI frameworks for Ada too. E.g.
Claw etc.
