I am doing something like that now. Sorry the example isn't very pretty,
had to rip out parts that were specific to the font I'm using, but
should give you an idea of what you need to do.

=====
\unexpanded\def\chaptercase{\uppercase}
\def\mychapter#1#2%
{\setupframed[width=1.75in,align={right,broad},frame=off]\vbox{% 

\framed{\setupbodyfont[18pt]\setupinterlinespace[height=0,depth=0]Chapter}%
 \framed{\setupbodyfont[36pt]\setupinterlinespace[height=.1,depth=0]#1}%
\godown[-1ex]\framed{\setupbodyfont[24pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=2ex]#2\par}%
}}
\setuphead
  [chapter]
  [command=\mychapter,textcommand=\chaptercase,
   textstyle=\sl,numberstyle=\bf]
\starttext
\placelist[chapter,section][criterium=all,alternative=b]
\chapter{foo}
\chapter{bar}
\stoptext
