The chapter format that I want to achieve in the end is nearly the one in the attachment (excerpt of Christian Dietrich's PhD thesis).
When you have a complex layout it is easier to use the 
\defineheadalternative command to create it.
To change the font for each element disable the default settings with 
\setuphead[style=] and use \startfont (or \definedfont) to apply a 
different style for the number, title etc.
%%%% begin example
\defineframed
   [ChapterFrame]
   [width=\textwidth,
    align=flushright,
    offset=0pt,
    rulethickness=0pt]
\startsetups [christian_dietrich]
   \startlocalheadsetup
     \startframed[ChapterFrame]
       \blank[2cm]
       \startfont[Serif sa 8]
         \color[darkgray]{\headnumbercontent}
       \stopfont
       \blank[5mm]
       \startfont[SerifBold sa 2]
         \color[darkred]{\headtextcontent}
       \stopfont
       \blank[1cm]
       \startfont[SerifBold sa 1.5]
         \color[darkred]{\structureuservariable{subtitle}}
       \stopfont
     \stopframed
   \stoplocalheadsetup
\stopsetups
\defineheadalternative
   [christian_dietrich]
   [renderingsetup=christian_dietrich]
\setuphead
   [chapter]
   [alternative=christian_dietrich,
    header=empty,
    style=]
\starttext
\startchapter[title=Chapter title][subtitle=Chapter subtitle]
\samplefile{lorem}
\stopchapter
\stoptext
%%%% end example
Thank you very much! That looks really clean. I will add it to the wiki.

Can you bring some clarification regarding "style=", "command=" and "alternative="?
What, if I define multiple of them? Is the system not made for this?

I just tested my initial example regarding font size with `command=\MyChapter, style=` and the font size was only affected by the code of \MyChapter.
What is the default style?

Best
