Let \(X\) be a real normed space and let \(V\) be a subspace of \(X\). Denoting by \({\mathcal P}(X,V)\) the set of projections from \(X\) onto \(Y\), let \(\lambda(V,X)= \inf\{\| P\| : P\in{\mathcal P}(X,V)\}\) and \(\lambda(V)=\sup\{\lambda(V,X): V\subseteq X\}\), be the relative projection constant of \(V\) in \(X\) and the absolute projection constant of \(V\), respectively. \textit{H. Koenig} [Quaest. Math. 18, No. 1-3, 199-220 (1995; Zbl 0827.46005)] has proved (in contrast to the case \(k=2\)), that for \(k\geq 3\), there exists a \(k-\)dimensional symmetric space \(V_k\) such that (*) \(\lambda(V_k) >\lambda(\ell_2^{(k)})\); \(\lim_{k\rightarrow\infty}\lambda(V_k)/\sqrt k\geq (2-\sqrt{2/\pi})^{-1}\). In this paper the authors construct symmetric subspaces \(V^k\) of \(\ell_1\), with a simple structure, such that even \(\lambda(V^k,\ell_1)\) satisfy the properties (*). In the case \(k=2,3,4,\lambda(V^k)=\lambda(V^k,\ell_1)\). Fine combinatorial inequalities are used.
