We give a construction of a reflexive Banach space Xω1 with a transfinite basis of length ω1 and with no unconditional basic sequence. In addition every bounded operator from a subspace of Xω1 into the space Xω1 is a sum of a simple diagonal operator and a strictly singular one. © 2003 Académie des sciences.
