032c magazine is an English-language, bi-annual contemporary culture magazine that covers art, fashion, and politics. It was founded in 2001 by Joerg Koch and is published in Berlin. It hosts exhibitions and events at its Workshop in the former brutalist church compound St. Agnes and produces a line of products under the moniker 032c Gear.

The magazine was founded in Berlin in 2001 by Joerg Koch, a freelance journalist who had previously run a gallery, and Sandra von Mayer-Myrtenhain. It was originally created as a way to win attention for the domain 032c.com. The original cover featured a giant red square, a reference to the bold color in the Pantone Matching System for which the publication is named.

Past contributors include Matthew Barney, David Woodard, Helene Hegemann, Hedi Slimane, Daido Moriyama, Juergen Teller, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Wolfgang Tillmans, and Rem Koolhaas/OMA. The fashion section has featured stories by Steven Klein, Mario Sorrenti, Collier Schorr, Inez Van Lamsweerde, Fabien Baron and Alasdair McLellan.

The magazine has become known for its in-depth research dossiers on designers and artists such as Rei Kawakubo, Pablo Picasso, Azzedine Alaia, Nicolas Ghesquiere, William T Vollamann, and Werner Herzog.
