Given an infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$, I would like to construct a sequence of linearly independent unit vectors such that $\|u_k-u_l\|\geqslant 1$ whenever $k\neq l$. Any ideas on how to realize this?

It can be done fairly easily in any infinite dimensional normed space $X$. For a proof, see Lemma 1.4.22 in Robert E. Megginson's An Introduction to Banach Space Theory.
