We construct a Banach space that does not contain any infinite unconditional basic sequence and investigate further properties of this space. For example, it has no subspace that can be written as a topological direct sum of two infinite-dimensional spaces. This property implies that every operator on the space is a strictly singular perturbation of a multiple of the identity. In particular, it is either strictly singular or Fredholm with index zero. This implies that the space is not isomorphic to any proper subspace.
