A very nice font indeed.

It is a pain in the rear if you ask me. It is best to look into the
fontinst manual to see how fontinst can help to build the necessary
metric files and virtual fonts. You might have to define a new
letterpair for yourself for the Quadraat Sans as it is not listed in
the fontname list I have available here (of March '99). The
installation in ConTeXt is outlined in a text by Taco Hoekwater which
I have included in http://www.ruhrau.de/hannes/tex/context-faq.dvi.
