Hi!
I think you search for something like this:
\def\ChapterTop#1#2% bottom-aligned
{\framed[width=broad,offset=overlay]
{\framed[width=2in,height=2in]{GRAPHIC}\hfill
\framed[align=right]{#1\blank[2*big]#2}}}
\definetext[ChapterFoot][footer][pagenumber]
\setuphead
[chapter]
[command=\ChapterTop,
header=high,
footer=ChapterFoot,
numberstyle=\ssbid,
textstyle=\ssbfd]
\starttext \showframe
\dorecurse{3}{\chapter{First Chapter}\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte}}
\stoptext
Greetings
Andreas
