Hi Lukas,

I think this is what you might need:

    \definefontfamily
        [mainface]
        [rm]
        [WorkSans]
        [tf={style:light}, it={style:lightitalic}]
    \setupbodyfont[mainface]

    \setupbodyfontenvironment
        [default]
        [a=1.2,
         b=2.4,
         c=3.6,
         d=4.8,
         em=italic]

    \starttext
    \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
        roman\\
        {\bf bold}\\
        {\it italic}\\
        {\bi bold italic}\\
        {\tfa roman}\\
        {\bfb bold}\\
        {\itc italic}\\
        {\bid bold italic}\\
    \stopTEXpage
    \stoptext

I hope it helps,

Pablo
